One of the theories that has been advanced is that it's simply this
problem:

If so, it points out how idiotic Phoronix is about not being able to
notice udev pegging the CPU at 100% being someone bad for its
benchmark runs. :-)

OTOH, this bug has been known for over a week, and it is sort sad that
we haven't reverted this patch. It looks like the conversation has
died, but without a fix?
