Yann E. MORIN d0b7e11b93 fs/cpio: don't fail systems without /dev/null
We pass all our dracut configuration files via a config dir, but dracut
insists with having one config file. Because we do not want to have to
chose which file we pass (which would then have to be excluded from the
config dir), we just used an arbitrary empty file, and /dev/null seemed
to be a good candidate.

However, some build environments do not have a complete /dev, and may be
missing entries otherwise taken for granted, like /dev/null. This is
especially the case in constrained environments like containers.

Switch away from using /dev/null, and do create an actual empty file
that we can use as the dracut config file.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
