kernel/initrd and rootfs over LVM

I'm using kernel 2.6.0-test7 and as far I understand
prepare_namespace() checks if saved_root_name[0] is
not null (I'm passing root=/dev/vg0/lvroot), then
name_to_dev_t() try to guess what MINOR and MAJOR
are used by the root device.

Well, I can be missing something but name_to_dev_t()
does not handle lvm devices, right?

Regards,
