it seems systemd's fstab generator does some ordering such that people no longer have to care for the
chronological order of entries in the good old /etc/fstab file. If this is the case we will constantly run into issues
on the DMS end as we expect the fstab to be consistent.
I still think the DMS is not in the responsibility to fix systems, but I would be ok adding a path sorting in here to make
customers happy given the needinfo request on the mentioned bug really confirms that systemd does this ordering
