Indeed, dir is sufficient on the type transition. Dracut creates a temporary
working directory in /var/tmp in which it pregenerates its initramfs
environment.

The manage_* stuff needs to be elaborated a bit though (including chr_file
support at least).

It's not.

In modutils_read_module_config, you have search privileges in the directory,
but not listing privileges. Dracut needs listing privileges, as it uses
something like "find /etc/modprobe.d" in its internal operations.

I could add in list_dirs_pattern() in the modutils_read_module_config(), but
then that would enlarge the privileges for other domains that have this
(which is about 12 domains on my system).
