** Description changed:

  Upstream GRUB sets root=ZFS=rpool/path/to/rootfs by default. By
  supporting that syntax (while retaining the existing support for
  backwards compatibility), we can work out-of-the-box.
  
  I've attached a patch for zfs-initramfs to implement this. Note that
  since this is creating a new file in the debian/directory, you have to
  apply this patch to the packaging, not put the file in debian/patches/.
  If you put the file in debian/patches, debuild will choke.
  
  The patch has two parts. One, creating conf.d/zfs to set BOOT=zfs. This
  avoids the need to set boot=zfs on the Linux command-line in the GRUB
  configuration. The second part is a set of changes to scripts/zfs which
  grabs the ZFS= part from root= and stores that into ZFS_BOOTFS and
  ZFS_RPOOL.
