perhaps the trigger is when the system boots up with a system time which
preceeds the prior bootup.  this sort of thing happens because of
bug#1335522.  and that would explain why it happened this time.

imho such time discrepancy should not trigger full lengthy filesystem
checks.

i think this should probably be reassigned to fsck.ext2

the attachments were created thusly (the first per request in comment#7):
journalctl -b > /tmp/journal.txt
grip contigu"|ux.ver" syslog>/tmp/bootups.txt

grip is aliased to `zgrep -Ei --colour=always'

** Attachment added: "journalctl -b > /tmp/journal.txt"

Title:
  ALL FSCKs triggered for no apparent reason

Status in e2fsprogs package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  this bug has been around since early in vivid devel cycle, both before
  and after making systemd the default.

  i AM GRATEFUL that systemd DOES know how to properly parallelize all
  the fsck processes, activating only one per spindle at all times.

  still, i see no apparent reason that very frequently (tho not always)
  fsck is scheduled for ALL filesystems, when the preceeding event was a
  proper shutdown/reboot.  i may reboot several times in a day
  (switching between different vivid installs) and often ALL filesystems
  are checked several times in a row.

  the current bootup is one such.  several fsck processes still continue
  as i write this.
