The loop driver could be a module and would never be loaded, so the
iso-scan never takes place.
To let the iso-scan happen, it is now placed into the initqueue/settled
unconditionally.
Cached CMDLINE doesn't work 100%. For example the following case,
1. dracut starts to run dracut-cmdline.sh. CMDLINE is cached when calling
getarg 'rd.break=cmdline'.
2. In 92-parse-ibft.sh, ibft_to_cmdline() calls $(set_ifname ibft xx:xx..)
multiple times in each subshell.
3. In 1st call, set_ifname() will check $(getargs ifname) and write out
ifname=xxxx accordingly.
4. In 2nd call, set_ifname() will check $(getargs ifname) and it's wrong here.
Because in step 3, we introduce a new cmdline arg ifname=xxx, but CMDLINE
isn't updated. Thus we fail to get the new ifname arg.
It's doable to unset CMDLINE every time after a new cmdline arg is in. But
unset should be done in the parent process, because unset CMDLINE in a
subshell won't unset CMDLINE in its parent or sibling process. And also it's
painful to unset CMDLINE every time. In the future, functions and code
snippet could probably separate or move to other file, the unset CMDLINE could
malfunction again like this time.
So I'm thinking not to cache CMDLINE. It's doesn't hurt to re-read all the
cmdline args everytime. Because it's in initramfs, a non cached _getcmdline()
should be fast enough.
Please consider!

Previously if "$rootok" = 1, parsing of netroot command line arguments
was skipped. For multiple netroot arguments, all parse scripts have to
run.
Previously only the first netroot argument was taken into account for
the parsing scripts. Now every netroot argument is processed.
Fix 3 issues in ibft_to_cmdline():
- unset local variables at the beginning of each loop
- only write vlan.conf when we write out ip=xxx
- when vlan id is 0, don't write out vlan.conf. Because 0 means untagged
and we don't actually need vlan interface.
--persistent-policy <policy>:
Use <policy> to address disks and partitions.
<policy> can be any directory name found in /dev/disk.
E.g. "by-uuid", "by-label"
This prints the kernel command line parameters for the current disk
layout.
