[Bug 1115600] [NEW] nobootwait no longer averts waiting for fsck

[gregrwm]

Public bug reported:

in natty, specifying nobootwait allowed bootup to complete while fscks
were in progress.  in quantal, nobootwait apparently has lost it's
purpose.  bootup now waits for fsck, even for mounts specified with
nobootwait.  even if fs_passno is set higher than 2.  login is
impossible, even via ssh, until all fscks complete.
