tiny fixup to getarg to make handling more arguments slightly easier
...
This patch series adds support for some common mount arguments that have to be
handled in the initramfs.
It is also available at

Make exec failure not kill init or switch_root.
...
If exec fails, then the shell will die unless the next command
is part of a command list. So, exec $whatever || onoes is the way to go
There are also some minor cleanups that were leftovers from splitting
out switch_root in its current form.

Hooks and modules have a .sh extension
...
This makes it trivial to filter out temporary files, editor backups,
package management leftovers, etc. Thanks, Kay for the idea.

Goodbye, nash. We won't miss you.
...
This supercedes my previous switch_root patches, and applies on top of davej's
repo at git.kernel.org.
Nash is gone. In its place we have a reasonable switch_root implementation.
Of course, this switch_root is written in some rather hideous shell script,
and relies on some rather dodgy hacks. Rewriting in C would help things out.
However, it should be distro-independent, and it gets the job done.

[PATCH 49/50] Modify hook loading to make it slightly easier to script.

Modules are now responsible for loading their hooks into the initrd.
This should be all the structure we need to make it easy for things
to integrate with dracut -- now to document and test it all.

[PATCH 44/50] Get rid of echoer script

We can use sh -c to accomplish the same goal
Also move cat back on to the list of debugging tools -- all the files we were

[PATCH 43/50] Use ldd to find shared library deps.

This replaces the eu-readelf and ld-linux.so.2 hackery.
As a bonus it will keep working if we (for some bizzare reason) need
to load a non-elf executable or shared library on the initrd.

we are testing is already installed.

[PATCH 33/50] We now have a simple hook structure and 3 defined hook points.
...
Any script placed in /pre-udev will be sourced just before udev starts
device scanning and loading.
Any script placed in /pre-mount will be sourced just before we try to
mount a root filesystem.
Any script placed in /pre-pivot will be sourced just before we switch to the
new root filesystem.
These hooks should be the minimum needed to add back plymouth and deal with
more advanced filesysem mounting needs (multipath, iscsi, nfs, nbd, etc.)

[PATCH 32/50] Created pre-mount hook directory

This is for tasks that should run after device discovery, but before
mounting the new rootfs. Things like cryptoroot and resume from hibernate
should go here.
Hooks are sourced, not executed as separate scripts.

[PATCH 30/50] We no longer need plymouth.

init will ask for a passphrase directly if an encrypted root is detected.
Also, use udevadm settle with a 30 second timeout instead of a hardcoded
