The "fun" is stuff like udev helpers, which can link to whatever they
want. If the hardware is probed before /usr is mounted, they'll fail
to run and the work they should have done won't have happened.

Stock oe-core doesn't ship any interesting helpers, but on my Debian
system there is mtp-probe linking to /usr/lib/libmtp.so, and
udev-configure-printer (CUPS hotplug support) linking to (deep breath)
libcups gnutls avahi kerberos p11-kit.  So, all of those (and their
dependencies) probably have to move to /lib, or you put in the
documentation that printers and cameras can't be attached at boot.
