From: Thayne Harbaugh <tharbaugh@lnxi.com>
This patch makes gen_init_cpio more complete by adding symlink, pipe and
socket support. It updates scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh to support the
new types. The patch applies to the recent mm series that already have the
updated gen_init_cpio and gen_initramfs_list.sh.

The cpio file format used by initramfs is the "newc" (aka "cpio -c")

+format, and is documented in the file "buffer-format.txt". There are
+three ways to add an early userspace filesystem:
+
+1) Put your gzip'ed cpio in usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz.
+
+2) Set CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE to the filename of a gen_init_cpio
+input file. This provides the most flexibility and allows creation of
+archives with files not owned by the build user. This means that an
+unprivileged user can create an early userspace with files owned by
+root.
+
+3) Set CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE to point to a directory containing the
+files for your filesystem.
Where's this all leading?
