Dracut /shutdown script first tries to kill all processes still running
off old root. Unfortunately this fails for special user process that
runs bpfilter because it does not include reference to /oldroot in
places where dracut looks for in kilall_proc_mountpoint()

But it does contain reference to /oldroot in its mapped libraries list

So the quick fix would be to extend check for root references to also
look into /proc/$PID/maps. Something like (verified):

+++ dracut-lib.sh 2018-09-23 10:31:13.300054544 +0300

}
Note that there are also other places that use similar check (most
obvious being /shutdown script itself) which likely need uniform fix. If
there are no objection, I would introduce helper function to do check
and use it everywhere instead of open coding.
