[OE-core] [PATCH] udev 182: Create a symlink of /lib/udev/udevd in /sbin

From: Muhammad Shakeel <muhammad_shakeel at mentor.com>

>From udev 174 changelog:
"The udev daemon moved to /lib/udev/udevd. Non-systemd init systems
and non-dracut initramfs image generators need to change the init
scripts. Alternatively the udev build needs to move udevd back to
/sbin or create a symlink in /sbin, which is not done by default."

Also for 64 bit architectures there exists /lib64/udev instead of
/lib/udev and current init script fails to start udev.
