[systemd-devel] [PATCH] fstab-generator: ignore devices with fstype "ignore"

[Dave Reisner]

This is a valid field as documented by fstab(5). In line with mount(8)'s
behavior when iterating through /etc/fstab, the generator should skip
this entry entirely.
---
This actually isn't the current behavior of the new mount in util-linux, but of
the old mount implementation. I've sent a patch for libmount to behave the in
the same way since it appears to be a regression.
