Benjamin Gray 7f8256ae0e initramfs: Encode dependency on KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP
gen_initramfs.sh has an internal dependency on KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP
for generating file mtimes that is not exposed to make, so changing
KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP will not trigger a rebuild of the archive.

Declare the mtime date as a new parameter to gen_initramfs.sh to encode
KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP in the shell command, thereby making make aware
of the dependency.

It will rebuild if KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP changes or is newly set/unset.
It will _not_ rebuild if KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP is unset before and
after. This should be fine for anyone who doesn't care about setting
specific build times in the first place.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
