Use absolute path to call gen_init_cpio. This allows one
to use gen_initramfs.sh from any directory.
I do not mind this, but $(dirname "$0")
is not necessarily an absolute path, is it?


I added test code:

   echo dirname is $(dirname $0)

in this script, and I saw

   dirname is usr
Oh, sorry, commit message is wrong. Would that be ok for you if I will change
it in v2 to something like:

Prepend gen_init_cpio call with the same path as gen_initramfs.sh called. This
allows one to use gen_initramfs.sh from any directory, not only from the
kernel's topdir.
