Attached is a patch (also inline, but evo 2.0 seems to not get
'preformat' right anymore) that replaces
select-cpio_list-or-source-directory-for-initramfs-image.patch in
2.6.9-rc4-mm1, including the indentation fix, as well as fix an issue
reported by Esben Nielsen <simlo@phys.au.dk> as proposed by Sam Ravnborg
(Should fix failing to build if $O is set).

I also moved initramfs_list to initramfs_list.shipped, to make sure we
always have an 'fall back' list (say you unset CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE
and deleted your custom list/directory, then building will not fail).
