Subject: [PATCH] gen_initramfs_list.sh is a bash script that isn't posix
 compliant.

This ensures we call bash instead of sh which could be dash or any other
shell that is not compatible with the script.

Hi,
You will need to send this to some maintainer to merge it.

Maintainers don't usually scan LKML to pick up patches.

thanks.
