Up until now the main reason why we didn't proceed with starting the unit was exceed start limit burst. However, for unit types like mounts the other reason could be effective ratelimit on /proc/self/mountinfo event source. That means our mount unit state may not reflect current kernel state. Hence, we need to attempt to re-run the start job again after ratelimit on event source expires. As we will be introducing another reason than start limit let's rename the virtual function that implements the check.
