Please spell my last name correctly :)

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.
