Public bug reported:

On my Ubuntu system, udev, init and upstart-udev-bridge each eat around
~8% CPU. On my Gentoo system at home (that also has Intel graphics),
udev eats nothing.

Here is the "udevadm monitor" output:

patra...@patrakov-desktop:~$ udevadm monitor
monitor will print the received events for:
UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing
KERNEL - the kernel uevent

...and so on

So it looks like the graphics driver emits a useless uevent up to 200
times a second.
