Thanks. So we now need to bisect the change. My gut feeling is that
it's due to changes in /lib/udev/rules.d/, not in udevd itself.
I attached all udev rules provided by the udev 215 package (note that
lots of other packages ship stuff in /lib/udev/rules.d/) for
convenience. As a starter, could you install udev 222, and do
cp -a /lib/udev/rules.d{,.orig}
dpkg -L udev|grep lib/udev/rules.d/.*rules|xargs rm
tar -C /lib/udev/rules.d/ -xf /tmp/rules-215.tar.gz
update-initramfs -u
(Assuming that you saved the tarballs in /tmp). Then see whether your
system boots normally again? If so, the regression is in the rules, if
not, it's in udevd itself.
If it's in the rules, could you put back the rules from
/lib/udev/rules.d.orig/ one by one and see when things start going
haywire?
It's also not completely clear to me whether the hang already
happens in initramfs or in the "real" system. In the former case, you
need to call "update-initramfs -u" after each step (doing that can't
hurt either way).
Thanks!
Martin
