That's great information. It sounds like the fsck of the root file system
is handled inside the initramfs, and that the scripts/whatever which do
it are already passing the -C option.
So all that remains is to find a way to pass that option for the *other*
file systems, which are presumably done outside of the initramfs.
Unfortunately, that's where I hit a wall. It doesn't look like systemd
provides a friendly way to add that option. (I'll be happy to be proven
wrong.)
