Kay Sievers 30f2f0eb4b block: do_mounts - accept root=<non-existant partition>
Some devices, like md, may create partitions only at first access,
so allow root= to be set to a valid non-existant partition of an
existing disk. This applies only to non-initramfs root mounting.

This fixes a regression from 2.6.24 which did allow this to happen and
broke some users machines :(
