Summary: Remove warning about required cramfs patches when using initrds
Keywords: 


Recent kernels already include cram-fs support, and we do not need a
patched kernel to use initrds. So we can remove the dire warnings in the
documentation and make-kpkg, as well as the manual pages.

* README (so): Remove cramfs patch warning in a couple of places (we used
  to tell people to be sure to apply the cramfs patch or tell mkinitrd
  not to use cramfs, and this is not longer required for modern kernels)

* kernel/README (so): Ditto.

* make-kpkg: removed the mention of the cramfs patch, and also removed
  references to INITRD_OK, which is now obsolete

* make-kpkg (main): Removed the check and the warning when --initrd was being
  used. Now we just add the INITRD=YES to the command line and go on.

* make-kpkg.8:  removed the mention of the cramfs patch, and also removed
  references to INITRD_OK, which is now obsolete
