 Description   

This is a bit of rehash of LU-1833 / LU-2168 with a twist.

That patch checked if /etc/mtab is a symlink to /proc/... and if so skipped the update.

Well, now on Fedora 23+ (and possibly even F22) /etc/mtab is always a symlink to "../proc/self/mounts", the leading "../" throws our logic off and needs updating
