    Thanks to Matt Zimmmerman for noticing these!

    modules to avoid resume issues with USB.
    Thanks to Matthew Garrett for this patch!

    Thanks to maximilian attems for the manpage!

    into etc/mkinitramfs/scripts.

  * mkinitramfs: Set the umask.  Copy the scripts from
    /etc/mkinitramfs/scripts into the image.
    Make sure that modules file lists is actually a regular file.

  * init: Use ${rootmnt} instead of hardcoded /root, use mount -n
    Fix typo.

  * hook-functions (catenate_cpiogz): Add sanity check.
    (add_modules_from_file): Document, quote variable, add warning.

  * docs/example_hook: Update
    Thanks to Karl Hegbloom for these previous 5 patches!

  * init: Create /var/lock on the initramfs
    Thanks to Jerry Haltom for noticing this!

  * debian/dirs: rename to ...
  * debian/initramfs-tools.dirs: ... this.

  * scripts/functions (scsi_boot_events): Don't attempt to look
    at ${device}/type if it doesn't actually exist.
