udev-mount: allow recovery if devtmpfs is not available
Now we mount a tmpfs on /dev if devtmpfs is not available.
This will allow logins so that it is possible to recover. However, udev
is still down and will be until the user fixes their kernel. I would
like to thank Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> for the suggestion for
this.
