At what point do you get this message?

No, _netdev is a standard fstab option as described in the mount(8) manpage
for declaring that the filesystem requires network access when this is not
evident from the filesystem type. It's possible that mountall passes this
through to the mount command and the glusterfs mount helper doesn't
understand it, causing this warning message. But by itself this message
shouldn't prevent the filesystem from mounting. Did the filesystems mount
ok on boot after this change?
