Comment:
1. `mkinitcpio` is an Arch project and works fine with Void as is. I personally use `mkinitcpio` on most of my systems, even as the foundation of my ZFSBootMenu images, and have a vested interest in making sure it stays that way. But there's no need to attempt to take ownership over from Arch.
2. Has anybody shown that this warning actually indicates a problem with the initramfs image? It says "WARNING" right in the text, and even before I pulled the `mkinitcpio` patch from upstream, I confirmed that expected kernel modules made their way into initramfs images.
3. Somebody is welcome to PR a backport of the fix to our current dracut pending a full update. (It won't be me because I no longer have installations that will let me meaningfully test the patch.) Otherwise, as I noted when closing an untested PR to bump the dracut package, a full update requires more extensive testing and will hopefully be done once a core member finds some time and interest to take up the matter. (Documenting that this causes a real problem beyond spitting out some warnings will almost certainly increase the sense of urgency there.)
