I have to add, that this change has the potential to significantly change the shutdown order or cause a conflicting ordering, in case there are other init scripts which declare an explicit shutdown dependency. This will need someone to further investigate and test it. Looking at https://codesearch.debian.net/ and searching for packages which declare a Should-Stop or Required-Stop on udev and checking if any late shutdown services are involved.
