It's definitely no problem if the new behavior is optional and it's
possible to enable/disable it. So, the systemd can keep it disabled

What about findmnt(8), maybe we can add --autofs=yes/not.
The problem is that we probably do not want to change the default
output as it's probably already used in many scripts, or is it
acceptable to hide autofs by default? It's already done for glibc, so
it may not be a big issue. Not sure.
