Subject: [PATCH]: typo in init/initramfs.c

In populate_rootfs() the printk on line 554. It says "Unpacking 
initramfs..", which is confusing because if that line is reached the code 
has already decided that the image is an initrd image. The printk is thus 
wrong in stating that it is unpacking an "initramfs". It should says 
"initrd" instead. The attached patch corrects this typo.
