init: DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT requires explicit root= param
DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT shuffles SCSI and IDE device numbers and root
device number set using rdev become meaningless. Root devices should
be explicitly specified using textual names. Warn about it if root
can't be found and DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT is enabled. Also, add warning
to the help text.
