This is not enabled.  I debugged it and I cant see it getting called.  I
see populate_rootfs getting called but initrd_start is 0, I think there is
something different happening to unpack in initramfs since ours is compiled
in.

I am trying to look into it, but I need to relearn how the initramfs gets
initted for OpenRISC.  Perhaps the fix it going to keep the
flush_delayed_fput() call in init/main.c.

I expect to see a line "Unpacking initramfs..." but I don't:
