You'd have to set DefaultDependencies=no in order to turn the implicit
shutdown.target conflict dep off.

Still not convinced that we really want to do that. But note that on
Linux mounts have a fixed numeric ID, which is the first column in
/proc/self/mountinfo. You can also query that ID on many (but not all)
file systems via the name_to_handle_at() system call (which is really
nasty to use though, we already use it in path-util.c and tmpfiles.c
already.
