Documentation: add pointer to name_to_dev_t for root= values

Browse source 
Update kernel-parameters.txt to point users to the authoritative comment
for name_to_dev_t.  In addition, updates other places where some
name_to_dev_t behavior was discussed.  All other references to root=
appear to be for explicit sample usage or just side comments when
discussing other kernel parameters.

@ -129,6 +129,20 @@ decimal 11 is the major of SCSI CD-ROMs, and the minor 0 stands for
the first of these. You can find out all valid major numbers by
looking into include/linux/major.h.
In addition to major and minor numbers, if the device containing your
root partition uses a partition table format with unique partition
identifiers, then you may use them. For instance,
"root=PARTUUID=00112233-4455-6677-8899-AABBCCDDEEFF". It is also
possible to reference another partition on the same device using a
known partition UUID as the starting point. For example,
if partition 5 of the device has the UUID of
00112233-4455-6677-8899-AABBCCDDEEFF then partition 3 may be found as
follows:
PARTUUID=00112233-4455-6677-8899-AABBCCDDEEFF/PARTNROFF=-2
