Bug#404927: workaround patch
hey Marco,
I read up on udev rule creation and did some testing on another
machine (sym53c8xx driver), and I think this simple patch would do
what we want.
Though it was mentioned in this report that the ips and dpt_i2o
drivers may also require a workaround, that is not the case in any of
the examples provided by users in this bug report.
Of course, I do not think this is a fix for #404927, but I do believe
that its inclusion into udev for etch will decrease the severity of
#404927.
Please apply and upload for etch.
