Public bug reported: This, at least, causes kdump-tools to load only after some timeout. It could be loaded much earlier.
kdump-tools only requires the network to be online when it's configured to dump to ssh or nfs, and only when dumping, not when loading. We should have three services/units here: 1) the loading service, does not require network; 2) the dumping service, that works for local dumps, does not require network; 3) the dumping service, that works remotely, requires network. Now, as per LP#1681909, maybe we should not require network-online, but use some other way to verify that the host where we want to dump is online, given a certain (configured) timeout.
