-Unlike existing initramfs's, this is an attempt at having as little as
-possible hard-coded into the initramfs as possible. The initramfs has
-(basically) one purpose in life -- getting the rootfs mounted so that
-we can transition to the real rootfs. This is all driven off of
-device availability. Therefore, instead of scripts hard-coded to do
-various things, we depend on udev to create device nodes for us and
-then when we have the rootfs's device node, we mount and carry on.
-This helps to keep the time required in the initramfs as little as
-possible so that things like a 5 second boot aren't made impossible as
-a result of the very existence of an initramfs. It's likely that
-we'll grow some hooks for running arbitrary commands in the flow of
-the script, but it's worth trying to resist the urge as much as we can
-as hooks are guaranteed to be the path to slow-down.
