initscripts: populate-volatile.sh: run create_file synchronously
The behavior of running create_file in the background was introduced in d44816be ("initscripts: Populate volatile from existing file") without further explanation. Besides its questionable benefit, this causes actual issues: - Not all create_file processes may have finished by the time the initscript exits (or when it moves /etc/volatile.cache.build !) - By making the order of commands nondeterminstic, it could hide dependency issues where it was attempted to create files before their containing directories Signed-off-by:Matthias Schiffer <matthias.schiffer@ew.tq-group.com> Signed-off-by:
