[Bug 979812] [NEW] Include xhci-hcd in initrd

[Andreas Heinlein]

Public bug reported:

The xhci-hcd module should be included in the initrd to allow for
booting from USB3 devices (when connected to a USB3 controller). uhci-
hcd and ehci-hcd are compiled into the generic kernel so no need to
include any module, xhci-hcd (for whatever reason) is not.

This is at least critical for the kernel on the installer disc, which is
nowadays often copied to USB drives, but should be included in the
default installed initrd as well.
