I actually refrain from running 'cachefilesd' until the system is
running in the NFS root filesystem, and start it at the end of a
runlevel. I don't know that you can work around the issue you're having
short of launching it that way, or stopping the daemon while in your
initramfs but before doing your switch_root(). You may be able to work
around it if you /really/ want to cache those files during boot (I
understand), if you ditch your bind mount and to a --move instead.
After all, you don't want the filesystem available in two places, just
in a /new/ one.
In fact, I'm not entirely sure that move trick will work with the
running daemon, but let us know?

Additionally I create a mount-point /fscache in the nfsroot. Then df shows
also /fscache (and not the "/fscache not found" anymore), but with wrong
numbers, since it is an empty mountpoint on nfsroot.
Do you have a solution for that. Would you mind share your initramfs
with me?
