Resolving symlinks can fail before mounting any file system if one file
system depends on another being mounted. Symlinks are now resolved in
two passes:
* Before any file system is mounted, but then we are more gentle if
the source path can't be accessed
* Right before mounting a file system, so that we are sure that we
have the resolved path... but then if it can't be accessed we raise
an error.
