Subject: [PATCH] lsinitrd.sh: prevent < <$() construct
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Running dracut in a chroot environment, which has /dev not correctly
setup will result in errors like:

/usr/bin/lsinitrd: line 164: /dev/fd/62: No such file or directory
cpio: Malformed number �5�OK��
cpio: Malformed number 5�OK��
cpio: Malformed number �OK��

This is because bash wants /dev/fd/<num> for constructs like:
foo < <$(bar)
