Title:
  _netdev and no_netdev options missing from manpage for fstab(5)

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The manual page for mount(8) mentions using "_netdev" and "no_netdev"
  in the options field in /etc/fstab  However, it is not listed in the
  manual page for fstab(5)  If  "_netdev" and "no_netdev" are valid
  mount options that can be used in /etc/fstab, then they should be
  listed and described in the manual page for fstab(5).

  Here is what mount(8) has to say about "_netdev"

   _netdev
                The filesystem resides on a device that requires network  access
                (used  to  prevent  the  system  from  attempting to mount these
                filesystems until the network has been enabled on the system).

  "no_netdev" is missing from mount(8), too.  That can be fixed at the
  same time.
