Device nodes created with the default rule, without any symlink or option
are no longer saved to the udevdb. This saves us ~3 MB RAM for pretty much
useless files on tmpfs.
Note: HAL needs a fix to handle this correctly. It's already available on
the list.

udevinfo segfaults cause klibc's strlcpy writes behind the specified

string which is also not what you expect from a concatenation function.
Some broken ide drivers are generating high event traffic, with
add/remove events. With this attribute, it can be specified,
that the node is always available. It may be used in conjunction
with the new DRIVER= match to catch specific kernel device drivers.
