Both functions will be used by rootfs-block and fstab-sys modules.
Both are based on code present in mount-root.sh, though few changes are
present.
det_fs:
will try to determine filesystem type for supplied device, even if it's
not auto. If fs cannot be detected, or if the detected one differs from
the supplied one - a warning is issued (so user can fix its stuff later)
wrap_fsck:
will call fsck for specific device with optionally additional
fsckoptions. The function returns fsck return value.

If /proc/cmdline is empty (like if root=... is set in /etc/cmdline),
modules.d/99base/init will crash with a message saying "can't shift that
many" right before switch_root. The problem is in the block of code that
tries to look for init args. It does something like:
read CMDLINE </proc/cmdline
[...]
set $CMDLINE
shift
If CMDLINE="" then "set $CMDLINE" will dump all the variables to stdout.
(That should be "set -- $CMDLINE" instead.) Since there's no $1, the
"shift" causes an error, and dracut crashes.
The 'shift' was copy-and-pasted from the previous block. It doesn't
belong here; remove it.

Given that we boot into a modern Linux distribution with the "/run" toplevel
directory, we can easily mount move the whole /run directory to the real
root in the end and have the complete initramfs later on in
/run/initramfs. All log files and /run states are still accessible and
to save space /run/initramfs can be removed later on.
Because the kernel does not mount a tmpfs on /run prior to unpacking the
initramfs cpio image, we have to copy ourselves very early to a tmpfs
and mount it on /run.
Due to lazy umount the old initramfs binaries should
be removed in the end by switch_root.
This feature can be turned on with "--prefix".
