This patch should not be applied, but I see it has been applied anyway 
meanwhile, So we might have to solve this issue differently. 

This is actually the cause of my console not coming up. It was coming up after 
15 minutes
systemd-analyse blame said systemd-tmpfiles-setup-dev.service is taking 14 mins 
to come up.
I then traced through it and the problem is evident that its trying to write 
journal when creating /dev entries but we have delayed the journald starting 
point and caused a use-before-define situation.
I deleted /var/volatile symlinks and let /var/log be proper directory and same 
for /var/tmp. All worked fine, without this patch. We should probably stop 
doing /var/volatile thing anyway its not in FHS standard either, for ro-rfs do 
something else ( may be copy-binds into /tmp/) and for general case just leave 
it alone.
