An update that has eight fixes can now be installed.

Description:

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)
• Scan for files in /etc/multipath/conf.d when setting up a multipath configuration. (bsc#1048551)
• Support AMD CPU families 0x16 and 0x17 (bsc#1072424)
• Make ip=dhcp work. Previously, a network interface specifier was required. The new behaviour matches documented behaviour.
• Remove 00systemd-bootchart, which is gone from systemd for some time (bsc#1067279)
• Support predictable interface names (boo#960669)
• Include crc32c Intel module when using btrfs (bsc#1011554)
• Switch back to fipvlan for bnx2fc (bsc#1052840)
• 95fcoe: Allow bnc2x driver more time to complete DCB negotiation (bsc#1052840)
• 95fcoe: add timeout initqueue entries (bsc#1052840)
