First!

PATCH 1/2 is the same as the previous attempt for the gfs support. However,
the previous version had self.check set to 1 that caused problems on reboot
because fsck.gfs failed. I believe 0 is the right value here.

PATCH 2/2 adds the unknownFileSystem class that allows us to just comment
out the fstab lines with unknown (not supported) filesystem on upgrade. We
could just copy such lines, but that may result in non-booting system,
because of for example fsck problems (fsck for such filesystem may be not
installed or whatever). Ending up in a shell during boot process is a lot
worse then fixing the configuration from the running system with all utilities
available.
