WANG Chao 7c48f71b6f kdump.sysconfig: default to "nofail" mount 
Currently we have two issues against mounting filesystems by systemd.
1. If any failure in sysroot.mount, initrd.target won't be reached.
2. If any failure in mounting /etc/fstab, initrd.target won't be reached

Our kdump.sh is in dracut-pre-pivot hook which is ordered after
initrd.target. That means if systemd doesn't reach initrd.target,
pre-pivot service will not run.

Based on above, we can conclude that in order to run kdump.sh,
initrd.target must be reached.

To fix issue 1), we can add rootflags=nofail to 2nd kernel cmdline, so
that initrd.target will not require sysroot.mount. initrd.target
wouldn't care about the failures in sysroot.mount. That means
initrd.target can always be reached whether or not sysroot.mount fails.
So when initrd.target is reached, kdump.sh can be run.

To fix issue 2), we can append "nofail" mount options to every entry in
/etc/fstab. It has almost the same affects as to sysroot.mount.
initrd.target can be reached whether or not mount /etc/fstab fails. So
when initrd.target is reached, kdump.sh can be run.

If the mount failures block kdump from working properly (for example,
the dump target isn't mounted), the error handling will be done by
"default" action specified in /etc/kdump.conf. Otherwise kdump will
ignore the mount failures and dump as expected.
