From: Peter Korsgaard <peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Just calling wait_for_device_probe() is not enough to ensure that
asynchronously probed block devices are available (E.G. mmc, usb), so
add a "dm-mod.waitfor=<device1>[,..,<deviceN>]" parameter to get
dm-init to explicitly wait for specific block devices before
initializing the tables with logic similar to the rootwait logic that
was introduced with commit cc1ed7542c8c ("init: wait for
asynchronously scanned block devices").
E.G. with dm-verity on mmc using:
dm-mod.waitfor="PARTLABEL=hash-a,PARTLABEL=root-a"

+For setups using device-mapper on top of asynchronously probed block
+devices (MMC, USB, ..), it may be necessary to tell dm-init to
+explicitly wait for them to become available before setting up the
+device-mapper tables. This can be done with the "dm-mod.waitfor="
+module parameter, which takes a list of devices to wait for::
+
+ dm-mod.waitfor=<device1>[,..,<deviceN>]
