If systemd knew the root file system type before mounting, it could always issue fsck for ext3/4 and never do it for XFS and Btrfs. Maybe it's fs_passno that's become antiquated? Although this may not be generic enough so early in the boot process for systemd to determine file system type without a mount attempt?

The btrfs wiki recommends not installing btrfsck as /sbin/fsck.btrfs.
Instead, it advises to copy/link a no-op command like /bin/true.
