Patch for cannot open initial console error

[Steve Lord <lord@xxxxxxx>]

This is an untested patch which should fix the problem where an xfs
root (specifically /dev directory) booted readonly leads to problems
with opening the console device. It should follow the permissions
checking behaviour of other filesystems.
