linux-boot: Mount /dev as a devtmpfs from the start.
Suggested by Petter <petter@mykolab.ch> and Mark H Weaver <mhw@netris.org>. Reported by Duncan Keall <duncan@duncankeall.com>. Partly fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/19190> by populating /dev/mapper early enough. * gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-essential-file-systems): Mount /dev as a devtmpfs. (move-essential-file-systems): Add /dev. (mount-root-file-system): Mount /rw-root/dev as a devtmpfs instead of calling 'make-essential-device-nodes'. (boot-system): Remove call to 'make-essential-device-nodes'. * gnu/system/file-systems.scm (%devtmpfs-file-system): Remove. * doc/guix.texi (File Systems): Adjust accordingly.
