    kernel - Auto-initiate message stream for udev on read()
    
    * Ensure the device is initiated when read() is issued for /dev/udev,
      otherwise no events will be queued.
    
      This allows a simple cat /dev/udev to return the XML stream without
      having to issue any ioctls.
    
    * Reorder the devfs scan and initiation to close a race where an event could
      be lost.
