Description of problem:
kernel modules not loaded timely upon login via GDM. Possibly race-condition?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
setup ecryptfs and migrate users home. workaround all selinux issues or disable selinux. reboot and login via GDM. user directory gets mounted but undecrypted, so all the encrypted files are within the users home instead only decrypted files. logging in via CLI after reboot works well. my current fix is to load ecryptfs-kernel-module statically via modules-load.d on boot.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
user can't log in properly via GDM once his home was migrated to ecryptfs

Expected results:
user logs in via GDM and CLI and gets his files decrypted automatically

I've just tried to reproduce this (with selinux set to permissive mode), but everything is working fine for me. 

> workaround all selinux issues 

how did you do this exactly?

Please try to reproduce this problem and attach your /var/log/messages and /var/log/secure

Thanks
