Right now when you set module_config entries in your pillar data
like this:
salt:
minion:
module_config:
smtp.from: 'Kali Salt <admins+salt@kali.org>'
smtp.to: 'Kali Admins <admins+salt@kali.org>'
smtp.host: localhost
smtp.subject: 'Results of salt actions on'
smtp.fields: id,fun
On each run, you will always a different ordering of the various
fields in the minion configuration file, leading to spurious restart
of the minion and admin annoyance:
ID: salt-minion
Function: file.recurse
Name: /etc/salt/minion.d
Result: True
Comment: Recursively updated /etc/salt/minion.d

With the change here, this bad behaviour is gone...
