<title>kbuild: fix spurious initramfs rebuild</title>

When gen_initramfs_list is used to generate make dependencies, it
includes symbolic links, for which make tracks the link target. Any
change to that target will cause an initramfs rebuild, even if the
symlink points to something outside of the initramfs directory.

If the target happens to be /tmp, the rebuild occurs for each kernel
build, since gen_initramfs_list uses mktemp...

Proposed way to fix it is to omit symbolic links from generated
dependencies, but this has a small drawback: changing perm/owner on a
symlink will go unnoticed.

Impact: Bugfix, silent build failures

Fix a bug in gen_initramfs_list.sh: in case of failure, it left an
empty output file behind, messing up the next make.

<title>bzip2/lzma: fix built-in initramfs vs CONFIG_RD_GZIP</title>

Impact: Resolves build failures in some configurations

Makes it possible to disable CONFIG_RD_GZIP . In that case, the
built-in initramfs will be compressed by whatever compressor is
available (bzip2 or lzma) or left uncompressed if none is available.

It also removes a couple of warnings which occur when no ramdisk
compression at all is chosen.

It also restores the select ZLIB_INFLATE in drivers/block/Kconfig
which somehow came missing. This is needed to activate compilation of
the stuff in zlib_deflate.

<title>kbuild: add support for squashing uid/gid in gen_initramfs_list.sh</title>

Sometimes it is useful to squash all uid's/gid's to 0:0 regardless of
current owner.  For example, in build systems that get run as arbitrary
users (uClinux-dist).  This adds a special "squash" keyword so you can do
'-g squash -u squash' and have ownership squashed to root.

<title>kbuild: propagate errors from find in scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh</title>

If the find(1) in scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh generates any errors, it
will cause gen_initramfs_list.sh to fail (because of "set -e"), however
the errors from find are not printed to the user. This is rather confusing:

~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/
make[2]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz] Error 1
make[1]: *** [usr] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: *** wait: No child processes.  Stop.
make: *** [_all] Error 2

It is much easier to work out what the problem is if we let the errors
from find hit the console, eg:

~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/
find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/home: Permission denied
find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/lost+found: Permission denied
find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/opt: Permission denied
find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/root: Permission denied
make[2]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz] Error 1
make[1]: *** [usr] Error 2

Make kbuild handle compressed cpio initramfs-es.  An already compressed
cpio is copied directly to usr/, while a non-compressed cpio is filtered
through gzip (no changes here) on its way to usr/.

If the user has created a compressed cpio by other means, this saves him
from uncompressing it, just to be compressed again by kbuild.
