blkid reports PARTUUID values also for partitions that are defined by a
dos partitioning scheme. Instead of limiting the partitioning scheme to
"gpt or dos" just drop the test for the partitioning scheme and trust
blkid to do the right thing.

Why? Is this really sane? What kind of UUID's does DOS partitions have?

It's not a real UUID but -. The disk signature is a 32 bit value in the MBR. So it looks like this: 9bdf2dc6-02
This is already works for PARTUUID= for the rootfs= kernel command line argument and /etc/fstab.
