Actually "Bootloader-sets-root" has a different meaning here. When it's
set to yes, it means the initrd should replace the rootfs param provided
by the kernel, and when it's no, it's just providing a default one (in
case there's no rootfs argument at the kernel, which is not the case for
Ubuntu at the moment).

Follows a better patch, which avoid breaking the update-initramfs
process in case there's no fstab (unless it's required, with the
bootloader-sets-root as yes), and skipping if not needed (but it still
tries to provide a default, which is harmless).

I also added the support for FLASH_KERNEL_SKIP which can be used in case
you don't want/need to run the initramfs scripts for flash-kernel.
