[Bug 1651818] [NEW] busybox-initramfs needs different compile options to work with cryptroot-unlock

[Linuxrider]

Public bug reported:

The cryptroot-unlock script in the cryptsetup package does not work in initramfs.
It fails because "ps -e" is not available in busybox for initramfs.
When building the package with

CONFIG_DESKTOP=y
CONFIG_EXTRA_COMPAT=y

the needed commands (ps, grep) with parameter are there and it works.
Tetsted on Ubuntu GNOME 16.10.
