Subject: [PATCH 17/19] init: factor out root device lookup into lookup_root_device()
Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2026 18:09:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260615-discoverable-root_partitions-v1-17-39c78fac42e2@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260615-discoverable-root_partitions-v1-0-39c78fac42e2@kernel.org>
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.
