The root= requirement for dracut is not necessary just there's no one
is working on removing the limitation. I think that is not the key

I can't do anything about dracut. (Otherwise userspace could look at
ROOT= which is not parsed by existing kernel code to have a special

Current code use ramfs instead of tmpfs for stub when root= defined.
But for real use case with initramfs, usually there's like cmdline like
root=UUID=$UUID the root dev is the real device. For that case we have
no way to use initmpfs, thus this patch removes the limitation so tmpfs
can benefit
Current code use ramfs instead of tmpfs for stub when root= defined.
