The idea is that we don't want to include every single module, but we
want to include every module that might define a block device to boot
from, or a network device to network boot from. Having it in the upstream
kernel would be helpful, although how it's generated now is obviously
a hack.

Doing it at runtime in dracut would work, but would be obviously slow.
