I think mount -a will only try to mount filesystems that are not already
mounted.
-a, --all
Mount all filesystems (of the given types) mentioned in fstab.
[...]
remount
Attempt to remount an already-mounted filesystem. This is
commonly used to change the mount flags for a filesystem,
especially to make a readonly filesystem writeable.
