dracut fails to build bootable initramfs on fc22

[Ranjan Maitra]

OK, for me it is failing right at the very beginning, after it starts booting. I get a bunch of stuff (similar to floating exception, with several 00x333ffff -- I am making this up, but just to give you an idea). I have graphical boot off (no rhgb quiet) but I get this without much additional information.

No such issue with the 4.0.6-300.fc22.x86_64 kernel that is currently running on the machine as I type.
