udev: allow firmware requests to bypass the dependency tracking
The removal of the TIMEOUT= handling in udevd put firmware requests into the
devpath parent/child dependency tracking. Drivers which block in module_init()
asking userspace for firmware ran into a 30 sec device timeout.
The whole firmware loading willl hopefully move into the kernel and
the fragile-since-day-one fake async driver-core device dance involving
udev can be retired:
