genkernel ZFS initramfs scans all devices, hanging for tens of seconds

[globalcitizen]

As per Gentoo bug 627320 genkernels' ZFS produces a suboptimal initramfs in nearly all cases.

I can work on submitting a patch if this is the right place to submit a pull request.

this should be a priority, the boot time is extremely slow on zfs with genkernel

Can this issue be closed by making a new release?

Setting GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX to dozfs=cache in /etc/default/grub and executing grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg fixes this issue. But, dozfs option is not available in any release. Thus, I use the latest git commit from genkernel.

If you make a new release, this issue will be fixed.
