[pve-devel] [PATCH storage] cephfs: tell systemd that mount mount requires network

As we mount this manually and thus systemd doesn't know about any
dependency for cephFS mounts, this got umounted only at the last
stage of shutdown, where network wasn't active anymore.

But, CephFS needs to be connected to an active MDS for a clean
unmount so without network this mount would delay shutdown for quite
a bit, until after some minutes systemd gave up and forced unmount.

So tell systemd that this mount requires network, which can be done
with the '_netdev'[0] mount option, that lucky for us can be also
passed to a mount call and isn't only available for fstab.

with this a mount gets, among others:
> Wants=network-online.target
> Before=umount.target remote-fs.target
> After=remote-fs-pre.target system.slice network.target network-online.target -.mount

Which does the trick for us.
