This update for dracut provides the following fixes:

- Fix the task limit when running the emergency shell. This fixes a problem that was causing
  xfs_repair to crash when trying to repair a damaged XFS filesystem. (bsc#1019938)
- Ensure dracut.sh responds properly to hostonly_cmdline option. (bsc#1048748)
- Bail out if module directory does not exist. (bsc#1043900)
- Suppress bogus error message. (bsc#1032029)
- Fix module force loading with systemd. (bsc#986216)
- Add network-pre and network-online targets. (bsc#902901)
- Fix IFS separator in net-lib.sh. (bsc#996141)
- Fix system shutdown when in initrd rescue mode. (bsc#1048698)
- 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)
- Enable systemd-based core dumps for initrd. (bsc#1054809)
- Add missing coreutils dependency for initrd macros. (bsc#1055492)
- Scan for files in /etc/multipath/conf.d when setting up a multipath configuration.
