The NBFT support inclusion back in dracut-057-38.git20230725.el9 brought new requirements in the module-setup.sh check() section - the /etc/nvme/hostnqn and /etc/nvme/hostid files.
These files contain machine-specific UUID values and are not supposed to be included in an generic installation images. Since we intentionally remove these by lorax during installation ISO creation, the dracut run that creates installation initramfs skips the nvmf module inclusion due to unsatisfied requirements.
Proposed change:

Need to discuss this further with interested parties and upstream. The whole HostNQN story in RHEL and Fedora is still rather unclear. This however fixes some problems we're seeing in 9.3
