Currently, usr/gen_initramfs.sh takes care of all the use-cases:
[1] generates a cpio file unless CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE points to
a single cpio archive
[2] If CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE is the path to a cpio archive,
use it as-is.
[3] Compress the cpio file according to CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_*
unless it is passed a compressed archive.
To simplify the script, move [2] and [3] to usr/Makefile.
If CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE is the path to a cpio archive, there is
no need to run this shell script.
For the cpio archive compression, you can re-use the rules from
scripts/Makefile.lib .

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.
