The title states the issue.

If you put an invalid entry in fstab but put the nofail option in the
mount options, busybox mount -a and umount -a seem to disregard nofail.
I grepped through busybox code and could not find a reference to nofail
in the mount/umount code, so I think it isn't supported.
