The udev regression might affect other shutdown sequences so I don't
think the workaround should be implemented in cryptsetup's init scripts.

Not sure if the fix can be easily backported to 232-xyz, perhaps you
should follow-up on #791944 and ask there first?  Even if the udev
maintainers don't acknowledge the severity they're in a better position
to determine whether the workaround should go to our init scripts or
not.
