Subject: Rework the root device detection / creation stage - Set rootdelay to
 10 by default - Skip the whole detection stage if we use root on nfs - Use
 the new poll_device function to wait for at most $rootdelay seconds - Always
 pass rootdelay=0 to kinit, as we ensure the existence of the root device -
 Don't reboot after the fallback. This allows a user to fix a problem and
 continue booting - Rely on kinit to detect the root filesystem type. The
 rootfstype= option can still be used to override   Our old method would have
 failed as well, as the code for filesystem detection is the same
