That's still the default behavior if find_multipaths is off. And actually, I don't know what's wrong with that. If you don't like it, blacklist your root device. All you need to make sure is that multipath settings in the initrd and in the booted system are the same. "find_multipaths" is not a silver bullet to kill off multipath-related boot problems. It has advantages and disadvantages, depending on the use case. Anyway, I'm not aware of general problems with it in the later multipath versions. Btw, one thing you should be aware of is that udev rule files and systemd service files have changed. That requires also dracut changes that are not in upstream dracut yet.
