udev (173-0ubuntu4.1) oneiric-proposed; urgency=low

  [ Andy Whitcroft ]
  * debian/udev.initramfs-bottom: ignore timeout errors from udevadm we
    expect (and indeed requested) in certain failure modes.  If we do not we
    will bail out early and not transfer /dev into /root which is always
    fatal leading to unbootable machines.  (LP: #818177)
  * avoid-exit-deadlock-for-timely-events: avoid deadlock when exiting
    by continuing to handle events with timeliness requirements.
    The timeliness requirement will be violated if we ignore them which
    is highly undesirable.  Also these events are typically dependant
    events and may well block the events we are waiting on leading to
    boot delays and uninitialised devices.  (LP: #842560)
  * debian/udev.initramfs-bottom: increase the client-side timeout to
    better cope with potential timeout extension issues in udev.  We very
    much would prefer udev to time itself out and guarantee to have
    completed than take action ourselves.  Very worst case the timeout may
    be doubled from the default of 60s so increase ours accordingly.  Note,
    we should only ever trip this timeout when we are already in severe
    trouble.  (LP: #818177)
