[PATCH v1 04/14] stop dracut 35network-manager from running nm-initrd-generator

kexec-tools depends on dracut's 35network-manager module which will call nm-initrd-generator. We don't want nm-initrd-generator to generate connection profiles since we will copy them from 1st kernel to kdump kernel initramfs. NetworkManager >= 1.35.2 won't generate connection profiles if there's a connection dir with rd.neednet. For Fedora/RHEL, this connection dir is /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections. For the details, please refer to the NetworkManager commit 79885656d3 ("initrd: don't add a connection if there's a connection dir with rd.neednet") [1]. Before the release of NetworkManager >= 1.35.2, we need to mask /usr/libexec/nm-initrd-generator. [1] https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/merge_requ...
