I tried a custom Linux 3.16.3 (defconfig minus CONFIG_DEVTMPFS plus virtio drivers), udev 175-7.2, and initramfs-tools versions 0.109.1 (wheezy), 0.116 and 0.117. All of them produced a *warning* at boot about missing devtmpfs, but all of them booted. So I suspect that the boot failure is not related to CONFIG_DEVTMPFS but is one of the several known bugs in 0.117 that were fixed in 0.118. Please try that version.
