[PATCH] init: Add bdev fs printk if mount_block_root failed

[Angus Chen]

Attempt to printk all bdev fstype as root gives the following kernel panic:

[    1.729006] VFS: Cannot open root device "vda" or unknown-block(253,0): error -19
[    1.730603] Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions:
[    1.732323] fd00          256000 vda
[    1.732329]  driver: virtio_blk

QEMU command line:
"qemu-system-x86_64 -append root=/dev/vda rootfstype=ext4 ..."

This error is because ext4 is not buildin and request ext4 module fail.

As a hint, printk all the bdev fstype available for prompts.
