   An update that has four recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:

   This update provides KIWI v7.03.120, which brings fixes and enhancements:

   - Keep NVMe drivers in the initrd in order to support systems with the
     root filesystem on NVMe devices. (bsc#1060304)
   - Calling 'pvs --noheadings -o vg_name <device>' is not sufficient to get
     the volume name and to determine if LVM is being used, as it could
     happen that udev events are not yet processed, thus the <device> is not
     yet properly mapped, so it changed to use blkid to determine if the type
     of the requested partition is LVM and if so it proceeds to a polling
     strategy to call pvs tool until it succeeds or timing out after 30
     seconds. (bsc#1059715)
   - Fix setting the blocksize value for losetup via the -L command line
     option. This was broken due to an option name clash between suse
     util-linux and upstream. (bsc#1066873)
   - Due to jitters in boot on Azure, the drivers are not always found, so
     keep them in the initrd to avoid the issue in the virtualized
     environment. (bsc#1059633)
