In order to ensure that the bundled initramfs always contains the most
recently generated DM_VERITY_IMAGE specific root filesystems' root hash,
we disable the timestamp for do_rootfs() task here, meaning that the
task will be re-executed whenever some task that depends on it executes.

Effectively these re-executions should occur only when e.g.
'bitbake <DM_VERITY_IMAGE>' is issued. If 100% reproducible image builds
are needed then this approach may need revising.

Without this change, executing e.g. the following sequence

  $ bitbake <DM_VERITY_IMAGE>
  $ bitbake -c clean <DM_VERITY_IMAGE>
  $ bitbake <DM_VERITY_IMAGE>

results in an unbootable <DM_VERITY_IMAGE> rootfs, which fails like
