Bug Description

This is a follow up bug raised in bug 894456

btrfsck can only run (and do something useful) on unmounted filesystems. It fails on read-only mounted filesystems.

This is a request to either special case btrfs / have a per mountpoint option to run fsck prior to mounting a filesystem.

As discussed on IRC, mountall always runs fsck before mounting anything. The exception is the root fs, which is mounted from the initramfs - that happens before mountall is started at all.
