On the contrary I thought it was more confusing to include udev.inc in some
and not in others.I find that the recipes are quite similar. infact do_install function could
be also commonized properly and extra bits put into install_append in given
recipes. I did not spend time doing that yet. 
Then the description field is also weirdly overridden in recipes probably
that needs fixing as well.

Any specific reason to have udev-1xx.inc ?

I will leave udev_151 as it is and only commit the udevadm change for now
