Bug Description

Output in the form of

    $ sudo mount -v -a
    / : ignored
    /boot : already mounted
    /boot/efi : already mounted
    /home : already mounted
    none : ignored
    /mnt/DATA : already mounted
    mount: mount(2) failed: No such file or directory

should be

    $ sudo mount -v -a
    / : ignored
    /boot : already mounted
    /boot/efi : already mounted
    /home : already mounted
    none : ignored
    /mnt/DATA : already mounted
    [mountpoint] [target] mount: mount(2) failed: No such file or directory

otherwise the verbose option hardly deserves its name.
