[Bug 1709649] [NEW] 229 backport for race between explicit mount and handling automount

[Pegerto Fernandez]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

We have a blocking issue in systemd for the following release

```
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="16.04.3 LTS (Xenial Xerus)"
ID=ubuntu
ID_LIKE=debian
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS"
VERSION_ID="16.04"
HOME_URL="http://www.ubuntu.com/"
SUPPORT_URL="http://help.ubuntu.com/"
BUG_REPORT_URL="http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/"
VERSION_CODENAME=xenial
UBUNTU_CODENAME=xenial
```

This release runs systemd229, we are affected by the following auto-
mouting race condition

```
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/5916
```

Is back porting  the fix to the release 229 an option?

Regards.
