rflags is no longer guaranteed to be non empty. / is mounted according
to rootflags parameter but forced ro at first. Later it is remounted
according to /etc/fstab + rootflags parameter and "ro"/"rw". If
parameters are still the same as for first mount, / isn't remounted.

Now init checks that we understood the root= option, and can
act upon it, presenting and error if not. Also, clean up the
generation of udev rules such that we don't require /bin/echo.
All modules now live in a subdirectory /modules.d. Each module is
self-contained -- it should contain everything that it will install
on the initrd. All modules must include a script named install, which
will be sourced by dracut. This script should do the actual file installation
using inst methods. The moddir variable will point to the full path to the
module dracut is currently working on.
As usual, this patch series applies on top of my previous patch series,
and is available as normalize-modules from http://git.fnordovax.org/dracut.
If the last character in the argument to search for is "=", then
getarg will echo all the text after the = as well as returning 0 or 1 depending
on whether or not the arg is found.
Otherwise, getarg will jsut return 0 if the exact test of the argument is found,
1 otherwise.
We now have mount hooks. They are sourced in an infinite loop until one of
them actually mounts the real root filesystem.
This makes it easier to add support for arbitrarily complex schemes to find
the root filesystem without having to patch the init script.
This patch series is also avaialble ass the hookify-finding-root branch at
