mkinitcpio: Produce reproducible initramfs images
Created by: esotericnonsense
We achieve this by stripping timestamps from within the filesystem, and by using a pipeline to strip inodes from the cpio archive.
It functions for at least the 'gzip', 'xz', 'bzip2', 'lz4' and 'cat' compressors. The 'lzop' compressor embeds a runtime timestamp.
