Ah that's a good point! We add these commands in Yocto, but I forgot the
use case without Yocto. So I will add a nv/linux.bootargs.rootfs file
with "rootwait ro fsck.repair=yes" (fsck.repair is a systemd unit).

This is already implemented by a test above these changes, isn't it?
snippet from init/bootsource:
1 #!/bin/sh
