>From my understanding hostonly is a different mode comparing with the default
one which being used for distribution provided initramfs. In the latter case
all possible drivers should be included. But hostonly mode only adding the
drivers being used in this boot. From the code logic we provided it will detect
active wdt module and add the driver, the behavior is just "hostonly", no?
