[PATCH] udevd: avoid overhead of calling rmdir on non-empty directories

[Alan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk>]

Unfortunately the linux rmdir implementation unhashes the dentry
even when the directory is not removed.  This is apparently by
design (for filesystems that don't allow deleting open files).

Results from time(1) and oprofile follow.
