kdump-lib.sh can have a wrapper, but we should use dracut fuctions especially
in module-setup.sh. I have posted one patch to dracut so that we can use
dracut-functions.sh. I still do not see what is the difficulty? Can you post
your error messages?

Just source the dracut-functions.sh to mkdumprd, without any correction.
[root@localhost 99kdumpbase]# kdumpctl restart

initdir not set

Once I define the initdir in the mkdumprd, the error message raises like below:
[root@localhost 99kdumpbase]# kdumpctl restart

Once I have resolved this issue, there is other error message raised.
