Ah, yeah sorry, forgot to mention, you need to also add "noauto" to the
line. If it is "auto" we'll still wait for the mount unit to complete.

Basically, combining x-systemd.automount + auto is just a away to speed
up boot by fscking in the bg while the mount point is already
established. After boot the file system will be mounted as if
x-systemd.automount hadn't been used.

Combining x-systemd.automount + noauto however is a way to establish a
mount point and only lazily triggering it on access. And that's what you
want to use here.
