Bug#782522: Skip file system check if already done by initramfs

Package: systemd
Version: 215-15
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Since version 0.117, initramfs-tools will fsck and mount / (and /usr, if
on a separate file system) in the initramfs.
These changes will be part of jessie.
With ext[234] this has some unpleasant side-effects though, if the
RTC is set to local time and not UTC.
A workaround has been added for new installations [2], which disables
the e2fsck superblock time check. Upgraded systems won't have such a
/etc/e2fsck.conf though.
I therefore propose that we skip the fsck for / and /usr altogether, if
already done by the initramfs and asked for flag files to be created
[3] in that case.
Attached is a patch, which makes use of those flag files.
Martin, I'd especially appreciate your review here, as I'd like to
upload this very soon.
This patch makes
debian/patches/fstab-generator-don-t-rely-on-usr-being-mounted-in-t.patch
obsolete.
I tested this patch successfully with both initramfs-tools 0.119 and 0.120.
