[PATCH 17/19] init: factor out root device lookup into lookup_root_device()
From: Vincent Mailhol
Date: Mon Jun 15 2026 - 12:24:15 EST
DPS root detection will also need to work if root_wait is set, meaning
that wait_for_root() needs to handle the DPS logic.
Move early_lookup_bdev() out of wait_for_root() into the new
lookup_root_device() so later changes can extend the lookup policy
without duplicating the retry logic.
