Tom Gundersen 12b42c7667 man: revert dynamic paths for split-usr setups
This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream
introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a
downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the
current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release.

 * by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the
   search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search
   path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is
   worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we
   could ship this.

 * this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend
   on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing
   man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before
   we could ship with this patch.

 * we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order
   to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start
   adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should
   probably question if it makes sense at all.

<title>Description</title>
<para><filename>systemd-fsck@.service</filename> and
<filename>systemd-fsck-root.service</filename> are services
responsible for file system checks. They are instantiated for each
device that is configured for file system checking.
<filename>systemd-fsck-root.service</filename> is responsible for
file system checks on the root file system, but in only if the
root filesystem wasn't checked in the initramfs.
<filename>systemd-fsck@.service</filename> is used for all other
file systems and for the root file system in the initramfs.</para>
<para>Those services are started at boot if
<option>passno</option> in <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> for the
file system is set to a value greater than zero. The file system
check for root is performed before the other file systems. Other
file systems may be checked in parallel, except when they are one
the same rotating disk.</para>
<para><filename>systemd-fsck</filename> does not know any details
about specific filesystems, and simply executes file system
checkers specific to each filesystem type
(<filename>/sbin/fsck.*</filename>). This helper will decide if
the filesystem should actually be checked based on the time since
last check, number of mounts, unclean unmount, etc.</para>
<para>If a file system check fails for a service without
<option>nofail</option>, emergency mode is activated, by isolating
to <filename>emergency.target</filename>.</para>

<varlistentry>
<term><varname>fsck.mode=</varname></term>
<listitem><para>One of <literal>auto</literal>,
<literal>force</literal>, <literal>skip</literal>. Controls
the mode of operation. The default is <literal>auto</literal>,
and ensures that file system checks are done when the file
system checker deems them necessary. <literal>force</literal>
unconditionally results in full file system checks.
<literal>skip</literal> skips any file system
checks.</para></listitem>

<listitem><para>One of <literal>preen</literal>,
<literal>yes</literal>, <literal>no</literal>. Controls the
mode of operation. The default is <literal> preen</literal>,

all questions. </para></listitem>
