Running dracut when the root device is not known to zdev (for example
because it is located on a virtio block device) will cause the zdev
dracut module to incorrectly return an error in the installkernel()
function. As a result dracut aborts with an error.
Fix this by ensuring that the non-zero exit code resulting from lszdev
not being able to determine the root device is not passed on to the
calling function. Also remove unnecessary error output in this case
by leaving the install() function early when the root device is not
known to zdev.

During processing, the zdev-provided dracut module creates a temporary
file using the mktemp tool. Due to a missing path specification
in the filename template, mktemp tries to create the temporary file
in the current working directory which fails if that directory is not
writable:
# cd /sys
# dracut -Nf
mktemp: failed to create file via template 'dracut-zdev.XXXX': No such
file or directory
chzdev: Could not write to file : No such file or directory
sed: can't read : No such file or directory
chzdev: Could not open file : No such file or directory
Fix this by specifying option --tmpdir when calling mktemp.
