  growing root partition does not always work with root=PARTUUID=

Bug description:
  === Begin SRU Template ===
  [Impact]
  Growing the root partition would fail in either of two cases:
   a.) if the device /dev/root existed
       This occurs on yakkety systems.

   b.) the kernel command line had upper case letters in PARTUUID=<value>
       This can be fed via root= on either xenial or yakkety.

  
  [Test Case]
  get-proposed-image is
    https://git.launchpad.net/~smoser/cloud-init/+git/sru-info/tree/bin/get-proposed-image
  It downloads a cloud image of a given release, and then creates a -proposed
  image with cloud-init upgraded.

  1.) get a (proposed) disk image image.
    and convert it to raw so you can read the partuuid with sfdisk
    (get-proposed-image does this, if not,
    'qemu-img convert -O raw orig.img orig.raw')
    ./get-proposed-image

  2.) get the partition uuid of the first partition
     $ raw=yakkety-server-cloudimg-amd64-proposed.raw
     $ ptuuid=$(sfdisk --part-uuid $raw 1)
     # sfdisk will normally output in upper case, but be explicit here.
     $ ptuuid=$(echo "$ptuuid" | tr '[a-z]' '[A-Z]')

  3.) create a nocloud seed
     $ printf "%s\n%s\n%s\n%s\n" "#cloud-config" "password: passw0rd" \
          "chpasswd: {expire: False}" "ssh_pwauth: True" > my-user-data
     $ echo "instance-id: $(uuidgen || echo i-abcdefg)" > my-meta-data
     $ cloud-localds my-seed.img my-user-data my-meta-data

  4.) extract kernel from inside the image
     $ sudo mount-image-callback $raw -- mchroot sh -xc 'cat /boot/vmlinu?-*' > kernel

  5.) boot instance with disk backed by the raw disk above.

     $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b $raw disk.img 10G
     $ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm \
         -drive file=disk.img,if=ide,index=0 -drive file=my-seed.img,if=ide \
         -net nic -net user,hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22 \
         -snapshot -m 768 -nographic -echr 0x05 \
         -kernel kernel \
         -append "root=PARTUUID=${ptuuid} ro console=tty1 console=ttyS0"

  6.) log in, verify / has been resized.
     log in with 'ubuntu' and password 'passw0rd'
      $ df -h /
      Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
      /dev/root       9.6G 1009M  8.6G  11% /

  [Regression Potential]
  The regression path is really the case where devent2dev finds /dev/root
  and /dev/root exists.  In that case, we now possibly return a /dev/<device>
  path when previously it would have returned /dev/root.

  [Other Info]
  The qemu-system-x86 command above uses ide devices.  This is because
  the ide device emulated by qemu is built into the -generic kernel,
  whilei the more common virtio-block or virtio-scsi are not.  If you
  attach those device types, it will fail with 'cant find root'.

  === End SRU Template ===

  When trying to verify I found a couple cases where this still does not
  work.
