guard against non-existing device nodes
As soon as devices are detected, they will show up in /sys/block but
there might be a delay before udev has created device nodes. sys2dev
will then happily make up device node paths which do not exist.So while looping through block devices on the search for live_fs, catch
non-existing device nodes as early as possible to avoid errors when
trying to do various operations on non-existing devices.Note that the guard in find_livefs means that subdevices are not
searched if the mother device node does not exist. Previously, a
/dev/sda1 could be found even if /dev/sda was missing. I do not see any
cases where that should be happening though. - 673. By Loïc Minier

Allow for platform-orion-ehci in ID_PATH to qualify as a "nice_device"
i.e. one which can host a livefs. This is the name of the USB device
driver on Marvell Dove boards. - 669. By Steve Kowalik

Rename 47unr-ubiquity as 47unr_ubiquity, as scripts with dashes don't get installed into the initramfs.
