File vdsm/supervdsm_api/udev.py:

Line 70: _udevTrigger
> we do this already for other subsystem, AFAIR it's as race-free as we could
Let's assume it is not race free. Each function still creates it's file and 
triggers for given subsystem. In this model, it doesn't matter as long, as the 
file is owned by something that allows QEMU access (that is guaranteed by the 
fact that this functions is called and blocks. We don't care about future 
triggers.

As for reverting the permissions, similar scenario occurs: the function will 
not be called before the VM is destroyed, and races between similar functions 
barely matter.

I don't know how this exact case could be made more resilient.
