Description

I think this is really a bug in mountall (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/809221), but it's affecting ceph and we might want to make ceph more forgiving, as
apparently nfs is:

in an fstab entry like

cephserver:port:/ /mnt ceph ....

/sbin/mountall will strip the trailing / from the first field, so that what the ceph
kernel module sees is

cephserver:port:

and it checks to see that the field (which represents the "device") ends in :/, which of
course it doesn't anymore.

This was apparently introduced by the fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/443035
