[Bug 1202734] [NEW] local-top/cryptroot could/should use wait-for-root

[Scott Moser]

Public bug reported:

I just happened here after debugging bug 1202700, and saw the sleep loop
below.

                # Default delay is 180s
                if [ -z "${ROOTDELAY}" ]; then
                        slumber=180
                else
                        slumber=${ROOTDELAY}
                fi

                slumber=$(( ${slumber} * 10 ))
                while [ ! -e "$cryptsource" ]; do
                        /bin/sleep 0.1
                        slumber=$(( ${slumber} - 1 ))
                        [ ${slumber} -gt 0 ] || break
                done

this is clearly better than just a single 'sleep $ROOTDELAY'
but wait-for-root usage would seemingly be better.

This is very low priority though, as it doesn't really hurt anything as
it is.
