The removal of the TIMEOUT= handling in udevd put firmware requests into the
devpath parent/child dependency tracking. Drivers which block in module_init()
asking userspace for firmware ran into a 30 sec device timeout.
The whole firmware loading willl hopefully move into the kernel and
the fragile-since-day-one fake async driver-core device dance involving
udev can be retired:

All "btrfs" file systems will be registered with the kernel when they
show up.
Incomplete multi-device volumes will set SYSTEMD_READY=0, to prevent
access until the volume is complete and fully registered.

https://launchpad.net/bugs/1011323 reports more AMILO models which need this
quirk; enough to assume that all of them need it, and applying it on working
models does not really hurt.
also a number of minor fixups and bug fixes: spelling, oom errors
that didn't print errors, not properly forwarding error codes,
few more consistency issues, et cetera
glibc/glib both use "out of memory" consistantly so maybe we should
consider that instead of this.
Eliminates one string out of a number of binaries. Also fixes extra newline
in udev/scsi_id

<falconindy> kay: just curious -- it looks like nodes created by udev from
modules.devname all have 000 perms, and there's nothing in udev that attempts
to change this. is it intended?
<falconindy> c--------- 1 root root 10, 223 Jul 1 23:10 uinput
<kay> falconindy: we might miss the default of 0600
<falconindy> seems like it
<kay> falconindy: stuff that has a rule works i guess
<kay> falconindy: i'll add the 0600 now
The filename parameter passed to mkdir can't contain anything but a
garbage value at this point. This was meant to be the full pathname to
the new udev DB, as the mkdir_parents() call before it won't create the
trailing child directory.
[replace mkdir_parents() + mkdir() with mkdir_p() -- kay]
