Peter Korsgaard 035641b01e dm init: add dm-mod.waitfor to wait for asynchronously probed block devices
Just calling wait_for_device_probe() is not enough to ensure that
asynchronously probed block devices are available (E.G. mmc, usb), so
add a "dm-mod.waitfor=<device1>[,..,<deviceN>]" parameter to get
dm-init to explicitly wait for specific block devices before
initializing the tables with logic similar to the rootwait logic that
was introduced with commit  cc1ed7542c ("init: wait for
asynchronously scanned block devices").

E.G. with dm-verity on mmc using:
dm-mod.waitfor="PARTLABEL=hash-a,PARTLABEL=root-a"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
