According to the following log, you are not mounting your root

This is the last line from the kernel.

This is the first line from the userspace initialization scripts. So I
guess your root filesystem is in an initramfs.

presumably the nfs-utils init script forgets to create this subsys
directory.

Looks like a bug in exportfs.
But if your goal is to mount a root filesystem over NFS, then the
nfs-utils package is useless. The kernel contains all the necessary
bits to mount a NFS filesystem as the root filesystem.
