Create initrd-root-device.target synchronization point (#3239)
Add a synchronization point so that custom initramfs units can run
after the root device becomes available, before it is fsck'd and
mounted.
This is useful for custom initramfs units that may modify the
root disk partition table, where the root device is not known in
advance (it's dynamically selected by the generators).
