Bug Description
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.
