Title:
  initramfs-zfs should support misc /dev dirs

Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in zfs-linux source package in Xenial:
  New
Status in zfs-linux source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Right now 'zfs-initramfs', i.e. /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/zfs
  does not support any other directory than /dev for "zpool import ...".
  Therefore even if a pool gets created from a different directory like
  /dev, say /dev/disk/by-id or /dev/chassis/SYS on next reboot /dev will
  be used and thus zpool status will show the /dev/sd* etc. on
  successful import. Beside that now a user does not see the original
  names used in "zpool create ..." the unstable names like "/dev/sd*"
  are shown, which is explicitly NOT recommended.

  The following patch introduces the "pseudo" kernel param named "zdirs"
  - a comma separated list of dev dirs to scan on import - which gets
  used by /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/zfs to honor it.
