Subject: [V2,
	4/5] populate-volatile.sh: improve the handling of link config items

Message-Id: <333ad1f10e30bb33a4cc7d9f2447d0bf8d3255d0.1361352762.git.Qi.Chen@windriver.com>

From: Chen Qi <Qi.Chen@windriver.com>

Previously, if there's a link config item in the config file like

	    l root root 1777 /tmp /var/tmp

and /tmp has existed, the symlink will not be created correctly.

Another example is the /run directory. If /run directory has been
created by some recipe or script before populate-volatile.sh runs,
the symlink of /run to /var/run will not be created correctly.

This patch ensures that the system creates symlinks exactly as the
config file tells it.
