1e92f728 ("Add a --hostonly-nics option") allows only installing
the network drivers for specified NICs. But it doesn't allow an emtpy
--hostonly-nics. Specifying empty hostonly-nics is needed to address the
following use cases,
- drivers/s390/net is installed regardless of --hostonly-nics. There is
no need to repeat it.
- get_dev_module couldn't find the driver for a bond or a bridge
network interface so it's better for a module to install a bond
or bridge driver itself
- dracut kdump module wants to install the needed network drivers by
itself because it can't add the --hostonly-nics option to dracut when
itself is a dracut module
This patch distinguishes between an empty --hostonly-nics and --hostonly-nics
not added so a user can pass an empty --hostonly-nics option.
