Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * This breaks NFS mounts coming up reliably.  In some cases this can
  be quite intermittent.

  [Test Case]

   1. Add a mountpoint to an NFS share by name to fstab.
   2. See that it mounts with the mount command.
   3. Reboot 5+ times, note that it doesn't come up all (or the majority of the time).  

  [Regression Potential]

   * There could be a regression for the same reason it's blocked in
  Debian, because of dependency issues with packages not converted to
  systemd that want to run /etc/rcS.d/.

  You can check for this by looking for breaking/disable services during
  bootup.  Ubuntu is in a much better state than Debian, but there is a
  possibility we missed something.

  Otherwise, this will increase boot time, but when the user logs the
  networking will be more likely to be ready.

  
  -Previous description-
  After a fresh install of 15.10, nfs shares no longer mount on boot.   I'm using the same line to mount as I did in 14.04 prior:

  <server>:/share  /mnt/share  ntfs4  _netdev, auto 0 0

  This line worked just fine in 14.04, and 14.10 on my laptop, to mount
  the shares at boot.

  Manual mounting after boot works fine.  Systemctl shows a name
  resolution failure (see below)
