Impact: Avoids silent environment dependency
Make builtin initramfs compression an explicit configurable. The
previous version would pick a compression based on the binaries which
were installed on the system, which could lead to unexpected results.
It is now explicitly configured, and not having the appropriate
binaries installed on the build host is simply an error.Signed-off-by: Alain Knaff

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.Signed-off-by: Alain Knaff

Impact: Bugfix, avoids kernels which build but panic on boot
Fix a bug in decompress.c : only scanned until the first
non-configured compressor (with disastrous result especially if that
was gzip.)Signed-off-by: Alain Knaff

Impact: cleanup
'make headers_check' warn us about leaking of kernel private
(mostly compile time vars) data to userspace in headers. Fix it.Neither BOOT_HEAP_SIZE, BOOT_STACK_SIZE refs
was found by searching thru net (ie in user-space area)
so fence this all by __KERNEL__ guard.Signed-off-by: Cyrill Gorcunov

Impact: More consistent behaviour, avoid policy in the kernel
Upgrade/downgrade initrd/initramfs decompression failure from
inconsistently a panic or a KERN_ALERT message to a KERN_EMERG event.
It is, however, possible do design a system which can recover from
this (using the kernel builtin code and/or the internal initramfs),
which means this is policy, not a technical necessity.A good way to handle this would be to have a panic-level=X option, to
force a panic on a printk above a certain level. That is a separate
patch, however.Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin

Instead of failing to identify a compressed image with a decompressor
that we don't have compiled in, identify it and fail with a

Impact: build fix
flush_buffer() is used unconditionally:
init/initramfs.c:456: error: 'flush_buffer' undeclared (first use in this function)
init/initramfs.c:456: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
init/initramfs.c:456: error: for each function it appears in.)So remove the decompressor #ifdefs from around it.

Due to commit 2831fe6f9cc4e16c103504ee09a47a084297c0f3, "driver core:
create a private portion of struct device", device_initialize() can no
longer be called from atomic contexts.We now defer it until after config ROM probing. This requires changes
to the bus manager code because this may use a device before it was
probed.Reported-by: Jay Fenlason
