[Bug 926923] [NEW] udev occasionally goes into infinite loop

[Adam Conrad]

Public bug reported:

On a few of my machines, udev occasionally goes into strange infinite
loops.  This is a report of one such case (no idea if they're all
related, as this one seems specific to this hardware).  Attaching strace
and udevadm log of looping pain.
