I've tested the same steps as you wrote above (first created an
xfs partition, overrode it with a nilfs2 partition, wrote a similar
entry to fstab, and reboot),  but didn't reproduce the issue.

On my CentOS 7 environment, lsblk and default mount are perfectly
working.

So, it may be a version dependent issue of util-linux.
I will try to reproduce and nallow down the issue with newer util-linux
packages.
