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.
