| If you do:
|   killall udevd
|   strace /sbin/udevd
|   /sbin/udevd --daemon

| What does the strace print while udevd is the inotify calls? It looks
| like this here:
|   ...
|   inotify_init()                          = 3
|   inotify_add_watch(3, "/lib/udev/rules.d", ...) = 1
|   inotify_add_watch(3, "/etc/udev/rules.d", ...) = 2
|   inotify_add_watch(3, "/dev/.udev/rules.d", ...) = 3
|   ...
