rc.sysinit should not repeat its creation!!!

--move moves the mountpoint
--bind duplicates the mountpoint...

/dev is mounted twice (on /sysroot/dev and /initfs/dev) after mount --bind
and I suggest umounting /initfs/dev , because this is most probably the cause of /proc/mounts showing /dev twice...
