Because it keeps the mdmon and supported libraries mapped from within
rootfs -- neither of which can be freed after deleted by switch_root.
Ie, this way we keep the initial rootfs (the one which comes from
initramfs) dirty.

--takeover/--offroot (does mdadm running from initramfs sets the latter?)
is the way how it is designed to be used.
