The first field in fstab is the device to which your mount point is
attached.  Since there is no device associated with shmfs, the first
field should be "none" not "shmfs".  Otherwise it is correct.

FWIW... the first field is ignored for pseudo-filesystems like shmfs, so
you can put "yoann" as the first field in fstab if you want to... :)
