OK, the udevd is a result from /lib/udev/devices/ which is copied to
/dev early on boot by udevd. Kay says that this dir reeally should not
be put in /lib/udev/devices/.
Still puzzled why LVM wants with /dev/mqueue though. Anybody from LVM
around who can say something about this?
lvm is brain damaged. strace lvm pvscan, and watch as it opens a bunch
of stuff that there's no way there'd ever be a volume on.
/dev/snd/*, tty's, usbmon etc etc
It's been this way for years. I first noticed it when it triggered a bug
in agpgart a long time ago.
