I've looked a bit closer at your patch, and it looks fine.
Not generating the systemd-fsck@ instance when the flag file exists,
looks like a proper solution to this issue.

I gave the patch a quick test and it seems to work with both dracut and
initramfs-tools. There are still some (new) issues with a separate /usr
[1], but that happens with both initramfs-tools and dracut.

So I think the patch can go in as is.

Regarding the flag files dracut generates for non-systemd mode:
Could you please file a bug report so it uses
/run/initramfs/fsck-root for /
and
/run/initramfs/fsck-usr for /usr

I expect most users will use the systemd-enabled dracut initramfs, but
it still seems worthwile fixing that.

Thanks,
Michael
