Dear Maintainer(s), Following patch fixes the ROOTFS size exceeding issue by using ustar format in cpio command under image_types.
The patch has been veified for the respective bug YOCTO #11674. Please merge in master if this looks ok. Thank you, Shashwat Pandey ... ... Cover letter on first submission: Quoted from Bugzilla #11674, "The cpio utility was standardized in POSIX.1-1988, but it was omitted from POSIX.1-2001 because of its file size (and other) limitations. For example, the GNU version offers various output format options, such as "bin" (default, and obsolete) and "ustar", having a file size limitations of 2,147,483,647 bytes (2 GB) and 8,589,934,591 bytes (8 GB), respectively. Hence using ustar format.
