<description>This update for dracut provides the following fixes:
- Ensure dracut.sh responds properly to hostonly_cmdline option. (bsc#1048748)
- Switch FIPS checking to use the libkcapi based fipscheck toolset. (bsc#1048565)
- Fix some ISCSI boot failures due to handle_firmware timing out. (bsc#1032284)
- Fix system shutdown when in initrd rescue mode. (bsc#1048698)
- Make sure dracut looks for modules.builtin in the correct path when used with the --kmoddir
option. (bsc#1048606)
- Ensure the ssh-client is usable by including the NSS plugin libraries configured in
nsswitch.conf. (bsc#1021846)
- Sync initramfs after creation to ensure it is properly written to disk when using fadump
and invoking crash right after service start. (bsc#1049113)
- Don't detect crc32.ko as built-in, as in some kernel configurations it may also appear as
a module. (bsc#1054538)
- Enable systemd-based core dumps for initrd. (bsc#1054809)
- Add missing coreutils dependency for initrd macros. (bsc#1055492)
