Now I don't have to unpack (or loop mount) ISO to boot via HTTP.
Also I can boot directly from any ALT mirror, like this:
automatic=method:http,network:dhcp,server:mirror.yandex.ru,directory=/altlinux/images/p9/simply/aarch64/slinux-live-9.1.1-aarch64.iso
Closes: #40710
LOOP_SET_FD, LOOP_SET_STATUS ioctls trigger a `change` event with
loopback device in question. udev handles those events with
(builtin) blkid command. Probing a device with blkid takes a while,
so init might try to mount the loopback device in question while
`blkid` is still running. As a result init and udev block each other.
Eventually (after 3 minutes or whatever udev event timeout is)
`blkid` gets killed and boot proceeds. However such long delays are
very annoying. Therefore run `udev_settle` after each loop related
ioctl to avoid the concurrent access to the same loopback device.
Closes: #40687
- added udevd, udevtrigger & udevsettle spawning from init,
reproducing nead same logic, found in initrd, created by
/sbin/mkinitd
- lots of obsolete by this change stuff removed
- use external /sbin/modprobe form klibc utils
in places, where manual module loading still needed
- pack unchangeable part of initramfs into `initfs'
file (gzipped cpio archive), which may be concatenated later
with other parts (especially kernel modules) to form
actual initramfs image.
