Looks like your setup did rely on the /dev/ notes from the built-in
initramfs to be preserved.

Can you comment out the call to d_genocide?  It seems like for your
the fact that clean_rootfs didn't actually clean up was a feature and
not a bug.

I guess the old, pre-2008 code also wouldn't have worked for you in
that case.
