The 0002-Allow-for-setting-password-in-clear-text.patch patch has been dropped 
from shadow with the update to 4.9 (see commit 759df739). It previously renamed 
the -P option to -A and added an insecure -P <cleartext password> option.

Replace the use of the -P <cleartext password> option with -p <encrypted 
password> 
and you should be good to go, also with Hardknott.
