Message:

Upgrade Udev to 122, udev-config to 20080522, and lfs-bootscripts to 20080522. Replace "write_net_rules all_interfaces" with a "udevadm test" loop. Fix several typos. Remove the usb_id segfault patch, as it's included in Udev now. Add /lib/udev/devices/kmsg, as udevd uses /dev/kmsg to log a message at startup. Replace udevtrigger/udevinfo with "udevadm trigger" and "udevadm info" in the text.

Should fix #2057, #2079, #2170, and #2186.
