We sporadically also see similar symptoms to this bug and #610107. I think they're also connected and both caused by killing udev in the middle of its operation. The huge number of similar bugs makes me think this is not the best idea even when it gives us 2 or 3 seconds less of boot time.

Wouldn't simply adding "/sbin/udevadm settle" before killing udev solve this issue? We're currently starting long-term tests to see whether it helps.
