The Fusion MPT SCSI storage drivers were missing from the new minimal initrd because they are not together with the other storage driver modules but live in their own "message/fusion/" folder. Add the "message/fusion/" folder to the initrd modules so that we can load the disk. Dependencies will be resolved by dracut-install as needed.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Very lucky that someone with this obscure hardware was running Alpha. I wonder if we've missed any others, but how to identify them? 🤔

How to use
Backport to Alpha
Testing done
Builds and the resulting image has the drivers. I didn't check if they get auto-loaded on the setup where this was a problem.
