    hook-functions: avoid aborting in chroots
    
    See merge request kernel-team/initramfs-tools!160

commit 297a9e292aac2a629cc6e7e557952d67640e97d1
Author: Chris Hofstaedtler <zeha@debian.org>
Date:   Tue Mar 4 13:08:40 2025 +0100

    hook-functions: avoid aborting in chroots
    
    chroots and other build environments often do not have /sys mounted.
    Nevertheless they want to build initrds. As a complication, live-boot
    calls these functions from a hook that has "set -e" turned on, turning
    the ignored error from "read" into an abort of update-initramfs.
    
    Fixes: b3e8cc4011334b6f39ba915149d5518b1644f87b

commit 34f9acde87eab2ee645f48a98f886fa1f6f150eb
Author: Ben Hutchings <benh@debian.org>
Date:   Sun Mar 2 16:05:01 2025 +0100

    hook-functions: Add reset drivers when MODULES=dep
    
    Reset drivers are currently included when MODULES=most but not when
    MODULES=dep.  Since they are outside the device model, match them by
    module name not by driver class.
