      sys-boot/boot-update-1.7.6

      After upgrading to a newer kernel, the system wouldn't boot correctly anymore, and instead halted the boot process with a kernel panic.

      This was because the rootflags parameter was added to grub.cfg after running the boot-update command - see related issue FL-3609. More specifically, it was the user_xattr mount option that triggered this to happen.

      /etc/fstab
      LABEL=k120_ssd_ROOT    /    ext4    noatime,user_xattr    0 1

      Adding user_xattr to the single_flags variable in resolver.py seems to fix the issue.
