With hostonly enabled, only modules that are currently
loaded are included in the initrd. Modules which are
explicitly listed in modules-load.d do not need to
be filtered that way. Fix for boo#962224.
systemd sets /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern to use systemd-coredump.
However, systemd-coredump is missing from initrd, making dumping
the core in initrd impossible by default.

Both 'utmp' and 'root' groups are mentioned in tmpfiles.d/systemd.conf
and as such should be included.
It's probably better to have something equiv to inst_rule_group_owner()
for udev rules which parses out users and groups and adds them to the
passwd/group db respectively.
Could also rely on sysusers but as the initramfs is static in this
sense, it's more efficient to pre-define the users IMO.
If journald.conf already contains Storage=persistent, journald will
write to /var/log/journal/, which ends up at /run/initramfs/log/journal/
after switching root. We want to make sure early boot logs are written
to /run/log/journal/ so they can be flushed to /var/log/journal/ after
switching root.
Basic systemd functionality is in 00systemd now.
Switching root and the initrd.target is in 00systemd-initrd.
Dracut additions to the systemd initrd are in 98dracut-systemd.
During boot systemd tries to load autofs4, but dracut will only
add it if it's loaded by the time dracut is run.
Modify dracut to always load autofs4.

some programs e.g. systemd-journald expect a directory in /var/log as
the marker to do some actions. Here journald tries to flush
/run/log/journal to /var/log/journal, if the directory is seen.
/var/log is now a symlink to /run/initramfs/log.
The rootfs-generator was installed in the wrong path
in the initrd, cause it never to be run.

Add new functions require_binaries() and require_any_binary() to be used
in the check() section of module-setup.sh.
These functions print a warning line telling the user, which binary is
missing for the specific dracut module.
This unifies the way of checking for binaries and makes the life of an
initramfs creator easier, if he wants to find out why a specific dracut
module is not included in the initramfs.
Systemd tries to load this modules very early.
Even though they are not strictly required it it is a good
thing to have them around.
