As I wrote, the "x-" syntax is not yet understood by mount/util-linux
2.20. This version is unfortunately quite outdated. TTBOMK you need at
least 2.21 for this to work. Atm you'll need to use the comment= syntax.
I.e. "comment=systemd.automount" and "comment=systemd.device-timeout="

Hopefully we will get a newer util-linux some time.
