      Description of problem:
      Drivers from a DUD with the OEMDRV label are loaded twice:

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
      RHEL-8.8, anaconda-33.16.8.9-1.el8_8

      How reproducible:
      always

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. Have a DUD with the OEMDRV label. (Use a DUD containing drivers which are not needed by the system, for example the e1000e driver on a VM with virtio network device. This is to avoid another problem with reloading drivers described in bug 1729032.)
      2. Attach the DUD as a CDROM device and boot the system.

      Actual results:
      DUD is examined and drivers loaded twice.

      Expected results:
      DUD is examined and drivers loaded just once.

      Additional info:
      Possible related bugs are: Bug 1700368 - Drivers from driverdisk in kickstart are loaded several times Bug 1729032 - Driver update end up in infinite loop when driver of storage device which contains driverdisc is updated.
