Stefan Berger 2e54968bab rootfs: Fix support for rootfstype= when root= is given 
commit 21528c69a0 upstream.

Documentation/filesystems/ramfs-rootfs-initramfs.rst states:

  If CONFIG_TMPFS is enabled, rootfs will use tmpfs instead of ramfs by
  default.  To force ramfs, add "rootfstype=ramfs" to the kernel command
  line.

This currently does not work when root= is provided since then
saved_root_name contains a string and rootfstype= is ignored. Therefore,
ramfs is currently always chosen when root= is provided.

The current behavior for rootfs's filesystem is:

   root=       | rootfstype= | chosen rootfs filesystem
   ------------+-------------+--------------------------
   unspecified | unspecified | tmpfs
   unspecified | tmpfs       | tmpfs
   unspecified | ramfs       | ramfs
    provided   | ignored     | ramfs

rootfstype= should be respected regardless whether root= is given,
as shown below:

   root=       | rootfstype= | chosen rootfs filesystem
   ------------+-------------+--------------------------
   unspecified | unspecified | tmpfs  (as before)
   unspecified | tmpfs       | tmpfs  (as before)
   unspecified | ramfs       | ramfs  (as before)
    provided   | unspecified | ramfs  (compatibility with before)
    provided   | tmpfs       | tmpfs  (new)
    provided   | ramfs       | ramfs  (new)

This table represents the new behavior.
