[Bug 1988418] Re: Please merge initramfs-tools 0.142 from Debian unstable.

[Steve Langasek]

My standard way of reviewing a merge is to do the merge myself and see
what comes up different.  Here are my observations:

conf/initramfs.conf: the commented COMPRESSLEVEL setting should match
the default, which for us is 1, not 3.

debian/control: upstream has Recommends: ${busybox:Recommends}, zstd,
but you only have Recommends: zstd.  Why?

debian/rules: you caught that there were build-time tests added by us
that should be retained even though upstream dropped their override;
good (I missed this).

hook-functions: upstream landed the change to exclude modems from the
net usb drivers, but we had cdc-phonet.ko in our list but Debian does
not.  I do not know why Debian did not include it; I think we should
include it in the merge and forward to Debian for consideration.

+       elif [ -n "${DEVICE}" ] || [ -n "${DEVICE6}" ]; then

FWIW I would write this as elif [ -n "$DEVICE$DEVICE6" ]; then

Otherwise, this looks good to me.
