When creating at runtime a newc initrd via arguments to initrd with "newc:"
prefixes, only emit a directory path record once. The original code
intended to do that by bailing out of emiting the record when the record
to be created matches an existing record. However, this does not happen
because grub_memcmp() is improperly checked.
Generating duplicate newc directory records does not cause any problems
because the linux unpacker will skip it once it sees the directory already
exists. This fix saves a little processing and makes the generated newc
cpio archive a little smaller.
Fixes: 92750e4c60 (Add ability to generate newc additions on runtime.)
