Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Replace sysctl setting invocations triggered from udev rule instead of modprobe configuration

Hi Neil, hi Steve

In Debian for the update including the systemd/50-nfs.conf there was a
report that sunrpc is not included anymore in the initrd through the
initramfs-tools hooks. 

The report is at https://bugs.debian.org/1022172

Marco d'Intri suggested there three possible solutions, of which one
could be done in nfs-utils (whereas the other two are either in kmod
upstream or initramfs-tools upstream). The nfs-utils one would be to
replace the modprobe configuration with a set of udev rules instead.

This series reverts the commit wich intorduce the use of the modprobe
configuration and instead replaces it with an udev rule which triggers
setting the sysctl settings when the respective modules are loaded

Regards,
Salvatore

    are loaded"
  systemd: Apply all sysctl settings through udev rule  when NFS-related
    modules are loaded
