[bug#38462] [PATCH] linux-boot: Don't ignore flags when mounting root file system.

[Guillaume Le Vaillant]

* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-root-file-system): Add the 'flags' keyword
  argument and use it when mounting the root file system.
  (boot-system): Pass the root file system flags to 'mount-root-file-system'.
