<summary>open-iscsi: Booting with iSCSI root device fails</summary>
<description>The following bug is fixed by this update: On restarting
iscsid after mounting the root over iSCSI device, it tried
to use CHAP authentication even when not auth was required.
This was caused by treating "(null)", returned by sysfs for
null strings, as a valid password. This terminated the
iSCSI connection, thereby rendering the system unusable.
