Not tested, but I doubt it will fix it. In this initramfs it is a
leftover from a time, when the system was multi-device. On two other
systems, initramfs works without the scan. Additionally I can put the
affected HDD from the laptop and put it into/on another system, that is
affected without initramfs. I can mount it there without any scan
before. But I'm not 100% sure if udev takes responsibility for scanning
here.
