Why this would work anyway is because barebox extends the kernel commandline with the root= entries required to boot the kernel from that specific partition where it did read the entry from. This way it should work having an A+B setup with only two rootfs partitions that include the kernel, the (generic) bootspec entry and the rootfs itself (as Sascha already pointed out).
