I absolutely detest the array in do_mounts, and I detest it even more when
somebody adds a gazillion new entries to it.

Please use "root=0xXXYY" instead, or consider figuring out the name
_automatically_ from the list of genhd's in the system (ie the reverse of
blkdev_name() or whatever it is called).
