As the device is seen by udev and correctly created during the early boot it does not seem to be a bug in the kernel. It may be a permissions issue with the fd drive device as made by udev, or alternatively an issue at a higher level:

  KERNEL[1258912797.217841] add /devices/platform/floppy.0/block/fd0 (block)
  UDEV_LOG=3
  ACTION=add
  DEVPATH=/devices/platform/floppy.0/block/fd0
  SUBSYSTEM=block
  DEVNAME=fd0
  DEVTYPE=disk
  SEQNUM=1006
  MAJOR=2
  MINOR=0

Will add tasks for those levels for confirmation.
