I already had this problem on raspbian wheezy as well and have it now on an
arm based NAS.  However, this might be a sysv-init only problem.  I did not
try to use systemd.

Its not! Like in xfs it is not possible to check a ro mounted f2fs filesystem.
fsck.f2fs does have the correct options, but is just telling the caller that
checking a mounted filesystem is unsupported with f2fs.

Touching /fastboot will work BTW because it will skip the failing call to
fsck.f2fs.
