SubjectPATCH: Don't check NFS root when root= is given
When the kernel is configured with NFS root, we should be able to pass
root=/dev/sda1 to kernel. mount_root in fs/super.c checks:

#ifdef CONFIG_ROOT_NFS
if (MAJOR(ROOT_DEV) != UNNAMED_MAJOR)
goto skip_nfs;
....

I think net/ipv4/ipconfig.c should do same.
