Public bug reported:

After installing nVidia drivers, the machine boots to a initramfs prompt
in kernel 4.13.  4.10 boots fine, although the x server crashes
continuously.  In 4.13 initramfs, dmesg reveals that there was an error
mounting the root fs.  btrfs check reports that the fs is fine, but
mounting it manually gives the same result.  It's using btrfs raid 1.
Mounting the second copy works fine, and after that mounting the first
one works as well.  The only way I can make the system bootable again is
to remove the nVidia drivers.
