This update for dracut fixes the following issues:

Security issues fixed:

- CVE-2016-8637: When the early microcode loading was enabled during initrd creation, the initrd
  would be read-only available for all users, allowing local users to retrieve secrets stored in
  the initial ramdisk. (bsc#1008340)

Non security issues fixed:

- Allow booting from degraded MD arrays with systemd. (bsc#1017695)
- Start multipath services before local-fs-pre.target. (bsc#1005410, bsc#1006118, bsc#1007925,
