The Xen module is unnecessary and it has been for a while.
Most Xen systems will not be using the module, even now, because
xen-detect is not installed by default on most Xen systems, and
dracut uses xen-detect to decide whether to include the module.
It also has some problems:
1) it does not try loading xen_platform_pci;
2) it loads modules unnecessarily; modules.alias is where all Xen support
should reside. Assuming xenbus_probe_frontend and xen_platform_pci
are loaded so that Xen devices are probed, other modules are picked up
automatically thanks to aliases such as
alias xen:vbd xen_blkfront
3) Even not-so-recent kernels (say 2.6.32) require the xen_platform_pci
and xenbus_probe_frontend modules even for non-paravirtualized guests.
60xen/module-setup.sh picks the module only for PV guests.
So, just require xenbus_probe_frontend to be builtin, and also
xen_platform_pci for fully-virtualized guests, and remove the module.

[harald@redhat.com: usable_root(): relaxed check for root]
The "read" shell builtin consumes backslashes, which is a problem if
your root device is something like "LABEL=Fedora\x2016".
Using "read -r" tells the shell to leave backslashes alone.
This patch replaces:
- {var}>... redirections with functionally identical eval construct +
explicit FDs
- ^^ and ,, case modifiers with temporary shopt
This allows us to lower minimum required bash version
to at least 3.1 (with current code).

Filtering modules requires enough work that instmods() in the
next pipeline stage was rarely busy. Parallelize the two
filters which do the most work. Also fix a filename-vs-contents
mistake in net_module_filter.

Whitespace removal in:
out="${out}${chop# }$r"
will damage certain strings, for example the following call:
str_replace ' aax aaxaa' x y
would return 'aayaayaa' instead of ' aay aayaa'.

Reworked the flow of the rules file a bit, removed redundant tests, also
should be easier to follow. It's much shorter now as well, a bit more
similar to 90lvm script - both revolve around same concepts after all.
There's no reason to treat conf-assembled arrays differently from
incremental ones. Once we hit timeout in init's udev loop, we can use
common script (mdraid_start.sh) to try force inactive arrays
into degraded mode.
md-finished.sh was kind-of out of place - it didn't really wait for any
particular device(s) to show up, just watched if onetime mdadm scripts
are still in place. Furthermore, after moving mdraid_start to --timeout
initqueue, it didn't really have too much to watch at all, besides
mdadm_auto (and that served no purpose, as we do wait for concrete
devices).
Either way, with stock 64-md fixes, current version of 65-md*.rules does
the following:
- limits assembly to certain uuids, if specified
- watch for no ddf/imsm
- if mdadm.conf => setup onetime -As script, without forced --run option
- if !mdadm.conf => incrementally assemble
- for both cases, setup timeout script, run-forcing arrays as a last resort

1) mdadm -As --auto=yes --run 2>&1 | vinfo (removed)
Currently such auto assembly will not complete or force-run partially
assembled arrays. It might assemble "concurrent" separate array and
force-run it, if possible (though the chances of suddenly showing
missing components in this scenario - a script run after udev timeout -
are pretty thin). See [1] for details. Also see #3 below.
2) mdadm -Is --run 2>&1 (removed)
This will only force-run native arrays - arrays in containers will not
be affected. See [1] for details. Also see #3 below.
3) mdadm -R run loop (implicitly handles #1 & #2)
This loop does everywthing that #1 & #2 are expected to do. Thus, the
above invocations are simply redundant and this is the most safe and
flexible option.
Also, it shouldn't be necessary to go under md/ directory, as those are
just symlinks to /dev/md[0-9]*.
Certain checks were changed to strict ones (array state, degraded state)
instead of relying on env tricks.
'cat' was added explicitly to installed programs (it has been used
implicitly in shutdown script either way)
4) mdmon bug
See [1] for details as well. In short - force-run arrays in containers
will not have mdmon started, so we do that manually.
5) stop/run queue magic
Also removed. mdadm -R will only cause change events to the array
itself, and they should not be an issue.

Stop both arrays (first pass) and containers (second pass).
Loop only over /dev/md[0-9]*
Call cleanup script only once, make sure it's after crypt cleanup.

Remove whole "start a container logic".
Containers once assembled, always remain in 'inactive' state.
Any attempt to run a container with mdadm -IR is a no-op, and any
attempt with just mdadm -R ends with an error.

Currently shipped mdadm rules incrementally assemble all imsm and native
raids, and do so unconditionally. This causes few issues:
- fine-grained controls in 65-md* are shadowed - for example,
mdadm.conf's presence tests or uuid checks
- 90dmraid might also conflict with 90mdraid, if user prefers the former
to handle containers
- possibly other subtle issues
This patch adjusts the behaviour.

Use bash "[[ string =~ pattern ]]" instead of "egrep -q".
Replace control-dominated serial fondling
for var in $(proc1); do proc2 var; done
with data-dominated parallel pipeline
proc1 | while read var; do proc2 var; done
Together this is a large savings.
