After further testing, if you create a /dev/uio directory before
trying to load a uio driver (like the PRU driver), everything works
fine.  Interestingly, there are *NO* symlinks actually generated in
the /dev/uio directory, but the simple fact that it exists seems to be
enough to keep the systemd-udevd processes from chewing up tons of CPU
until they get killed.

So the solution seems to be one of:

* Create a /dev/uio directory

* Remove the SYMLINK line from /etc/udev/uio.rules

I'm not enough of a udev guru to know which is the better option, but
removing or commenting the SYMLINK line in uio.rules seems like the
better choice, since there aren't any symlinks generated anyway.
