Thanks for this.

I am certainly not an expert on udev rules.

Do you know if/how this can be made to sit alongside the existing systemd rules
without conflicting? i.e only use this rule if systemd is not installed
available?

If so, this patch should go to Debian as this bug will also be present on a
Debian system that is not running systemd as PID1.

Thanks

Mark
