I'm pretty sure this is actually required if you use systemd's internal mount 
facilities -- it does not manage mtab and the file will be empty/out-of-date if 
you don't make it a symlink.

The warning is overly broad, because systemd doesn't check to see if you're 
mounting anything with it, or if you're using the internal mount utility when 
you do, but it's not simply a policy issue.
