1) This can be simplified to:

while pidof udevd | grep -q " " ; do
      sleep 0.1
done


2) Greg KH said to stick with (synchronous) udevstart for now, and I 
agree with him here. But there's your comment at

That seems to be in disagreement with Greg's words. Is that viewpoint 
obsolete? Or are there still plans to drop synchronous udevstart and 
make this "pidof" hack (or something equivalent) the official 
recommended solution?
