Description:
Currently mkinitcpio takes (only) the boot param "fstype" instead of "rootfstype" as documented in kernel docs. I am not sure if it's documented in mkinitcpio but I wonder if it's necessary to make such a difference, since it takes rootflags, which is documented in kernel docs as well.


Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
This task depends upon

Ran into this one and wasted plenty of time trying to figure out what i did wrong.

Here's a trivial patch which fixes it, a straightforward rename, which hopefully gets this ticket fixed.

This is fixed in git as:

https://git.archlinux.org/mkinitcpio.git/commit/?id=14487ea9a6104c17b00c6fa7bcb65c617c7490c8

I opted to leave in support for fstype for backwards compat.
