Subject: [PATCH] Record loaded kernel modules when hostonly mode is enabled

A hostonly image will not include every possibly required kernel module,

so if any hardware or configuration changed, the image may fail to boot.

One way to know if there are any hardware change or configuration change

that will require an image rebuild or not is to check the loaded kernel

module list. If the loaded kernel module list differs from last build

time, then the image may require to be rebuilt.

This commit will let dracut record the loaded kernel module list when

the image is being built, so other tools or services can compare this

list with currently loaded kernel modules to decide if dracut should be

called to rebuild the image.

To retrieve the loaded kernel modules list when an image is built, use

lsinitrd command:

lsinitrd $image -f */lib/dracut/loaded-kernel-modules.txt
