    kbuild: propagate errors from find in scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh · eda890af

    If the find(1) in scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh generates any errors, it
    will cause gen_initramfs_list.sh to fail (because of "set -e"), however
    the errors from find are not printed to the user. This is rather confusing:
    
    ~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/
    make[2]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz] Error 1
    make[1]: *** [usr] Error 2
    make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
    make[1]: *** wait: No child processes.  Stop.
    make: *** [_all] Error 2
    
    It is much easier to work out what the problem is if we let the errors
    from find hit the console, eg:
    
    ~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/
    find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/home: Permission denied
    find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/lost+found: Permission denied
    find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/opt: Permission denied
    find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/root: Permission denied
    make[2]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz] Error 1
    make[1]: *** [usr] Error 2
    make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
    make[1]: *** wait: No child processes.  Stop.
    make: *** [_all] Error 2
