Maybe the dependency of udev for CONFIG_FHANDLE in kernel should be listed somewhere in the source tarball?

Hello.
Could anyone tell me a reason why a mount (regardless of via fstab
or "mountpoint.mount" unit file) during system boot leads to a
timeout because of device timeout and after i do a "systemctl
daemon-reload" the mount is successful?

Detailed information:
My system is a Linuxfromscratch 7.5 (so no "real" distribution -
everything is self-compiled) and it runs as a paravirtualized Xen
DomU. Therefore the block devices are /dev/xvda1 and /dev/xvdb1.
The first is the root fs and mount and remount are okay. Then the
second block device should mount and it timed out with "Dependency
failed" and "dev-xvdb1.device/start timed out"
When I run "udevadm info /dev/xvdb1" everything seems to be okay,
but any try of mount this via systemd failes. When I mount manually
via "mount /dev/xvdb1 /mountpoint" it's fine. Then "systemctl status
mountpoint.mount" says "active".
Manually unmount is okay and after this a mount via systemd failes again.
If I do, and only if I do "systemctl daemon-reload" and then
"systemctl start mountpoint.mount" it works.

I'm a beginner with a systemd based system and do not know much
about the internals. What could lead to this behaviour? Is it
possible that I do anything wrong?
Please help. I'm very frustrated. If you need more Input, please tell me.
systemd's .device units rely on the "systemd" tag to be on the udev
device, as well as DEVICE_READY=1 being absent of it. I have no idea how
xen sets up block device nodes, but what is essential that this used to
inform systemd when the devices are ready to be mounted.

This is the output of "udevadm info /dev/xvdb1":

P: /devices/vbd-51729/block/xvdb1
N: xvdb1

Doesn't this mean, that the device is ready for a mount?

Here one can see the difference before and after "systemctl daemon-reload":

domU [ ~ ]# systemctl status dev-xvdb1.device
* dev-xvdb1.device
   Loaded: loaded
   Active: inactive (dead)
domU [ ~ ]# systemctl status dev-hvc0.device
* dev-hvc0.device
   Loaded: loaded
   Active: inactive (dead)
domU [ ~ ]# systemctl daemon-reload
domU [ ~ ]# systemctl status dev-xvdb1.device
* dev-xvdb1.device - /dev/xvdb1
Follow: unit currently follows state of sys-devices-vbd\x2d51729-block-xvdb1.device
   Loaded: loaded
   Active: active (plugged)
   Device: /sys/devices/vbd-51729/block/xvdb1
domU [ ~ ]# systemctl status dev-hvc0.device
* dev-hvc0.device - /dev/hvc0
Follow: unit currently follows state of sys-devices-virtual-tty-hvc0.device
   Loaded: loaded
   Active: active (plugged)
   Device: /sys/devices/virtual/tty/hvc0

I added the device /dev/hvc0 (console inside Xen domU) because it's the same behaviour. What's going on at "systemctl daemon-reload"? I thought it only looks for new updates in "/etc/systemd/system" "/var/run/systemd/system" and "[/usr]/lib/systemd/system".
What I realized was, that it updates files in /var/run/systemd/generator/
But everything there is the same.

Any ideas?

Best regard
Oliver
