The kernel-install is called even if you run make install.
Since we don't call dracut with -f a second make install will fail
because initrd with same version is already there.
This makes kernel developers feel miserable.

For EFI systems, the BLS fragments were stored in the EFI System Partition
(ESP) while in non-EFI systems it was stored in /boot.
For consistency, it's better to always store the BLS fragments in the same
path regardless of the firmware interface used.

After the $COMMAND case statement, the exit status of the last executed
command is added to the $ret variable.
But for the "add" pattern, this last executed command is an arithmetic
expression that also adds the exit status $? to the $ret variable. If
both $? and $ret are 0, then the arithmetic expression evaluates to 0
so is considered false and has an exit status of 1.
This makes the script to wrongly exit with an status code of 1 when it
should had been 0.
case "$COMMAND" in
add)
...
((ret+=$?))
# $ret is 0 here
;;
...
esac
((ret+=$?))
# $ ret is 1 here
exit $ret
Since $ret is set in the case statement, just exit with that status code
and remove the last arithmetic expression that wrongly sets $ret to 1.

Commit 5e574046e76e ("5?-dracut*.install: Allow scripts to install
the initramfs in /boot dir") added support to generate initramfs
images in the /boot directory and copy the respective BLS files.
Unfortunately, it broke the rescue initramfs generation when it's
not installed on /boot due not checking for the correct condition.
It checks for the 0-rescue sub-dir to exist, but this is created so
instead if the parent sub-dir exists has to be checked. Also, check
if the destination directory is /boot or not, instead if it exists.

The GRUB 2 bootloaders expect the initrd to be installed in /boot instead
of /boot/$MACHINE_ID/$KERNEL_VERSION/{linux,initrd}, so if that directory
doesn't exists, install the initramfs images on the /boot directory.

From systemd-234, kernel-install plugins are called even if /etc/machine-id
is missing or empty, and in that case BOOT_DIR_ABS is a fake directory.
So, let's skip to create initrd in that case.
Upon installation of a kernel, check if a rescue image is already
available and if not, create a non-hostonly generic initramfs image with
the rescue module added.
