Thanks, Steve.

One workaround available is to increase the number of udev workers with the 'udev.children-max=<number of disks + something>' option in the kernel cmdline.

The timeframe for bigger changes is indeed not the best one; but perhaps, other than a workaround, there may be some sort of solution available that's more conservative, by someone skilled on this area.

For example, I had the impression the default number of max udev workers decreased from 40 on previous releases to 24 now (or recently). Maybe some other changes got in that might be related too.
