Yaird seems to do its job correctly: Bring the system to a point of the
root filesystem being mounted.

Udev not cold-plugging already-loaded modules sounds like a bug in
udev - or perhaps in kernel modules not being "udev-friendly".

Reassigning to udev. I trust Marco in knowing if the bug is there or the
kernel (or can clarify why it might be a bug in yaird after all).
