That's not reliable, and plymouth shouldn't do that. Many modern busses have no time limit on probing, notably USB. An empty queue of udev is by no means indication that no graphical device will be found. Plymouth should subscribe to devices coming, and make use of them if they appear. THen, if a timeout is reched it can do fallback text mode stuff. But this must be bound to a timeout, attaching this to udev is necessarily racy.
