Right, so it would seem you are missing these 2 patches

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1098589/
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1098588/

I remember Yann saying it would be nice to have this in every init system,
not only openrc. This is probably the reason why these 2 were not merged.
But honestly I don't really know what changes to make to make these patches
generic to all init systems. The only common parts are:

Which for me look generic enough to be used in other init systems, we just
have to remove `depends on BR2_INIT_OPENRC' (or add deps on another init)
once it is implemented in others inits. Other changes regarding these
features are done in package/openrc/openrc.mk.
