Control: reassign -1 opensm 3.3.19-1
Control: retitle -1 opensm should be started at early-boot

open-iscsi needs to be started at early-boot, otherwise filesystems on
iSCSI will not be available for services that use them. Therefore,
opensm should also be started at early-boot, thus reassigning this bug
to opensm, because open-iscsi is started at the right time during the
boot process.

Note that open-iscsi is started so early that /usr might not be
available if sysvinit is used as init system (for systemd it's mounted
in initrd), so the next version of open-iscsi will have its binaries in
/ instead of /usr - this will probably be necessary for opensm as well
if it's moved to early-boot.

Also note that in the future (for Stretch) a native systemd service
needs to be provided for init scripts that run in rcS - so simply
changing the init script of opensm to be started in runlevel S will not
be enough - a systemd service will be needed as well.
