What about the following patch?
I believe that the idea behind fsck_y_enable is to try to make unattended systems
with rw filesystems as recoverable as possible at the cost of potential damage to
the data. The new "-C" option should not interfere with this goal, but should
reduce recovery time, because currently fsck -y checks *all* filesystems from
fstab, even those that are ro or clean:

-C      Check if the “clean” flag is set in the superblock and skip file
        system checks if file system was properly dismounted and marked
        clean.
