Great, udev looping rings the big bell here:

There's a user running 2.6.39 fedora kernels and reports the same
issue of udev looping but only when loading a module which fails
loading with -EINVAL. Reportedly, udev keeps trying indefinitely there:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35522

Anyway, just a datapoint, it could be unrelated.

Thanks.
