If create_dev() function fails to create the root mount device
(/dev/root), then it goes to panic as root device not found but there is
no printk in this case.  So I have added the log in case it fails to
create the root device.  It will help in debugging.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: simplify printk(), use pr_emerg(), display errno]
