Subject: [PATCH 1/2] udev: don't create by-partlabel/primary and .../logical
symlinks
These links are created by libstorage / parted by default. They are ambiguous
and may be present hundred- or thousandfold on large systems. They are
meaningless for device identification and may slow down udev processing. They
aren't used anywhere. Don't create them.
A service has been added to detect at boot cases that likely need to be fixed:
a warning is thrown at both the console and syslog to encourage sysadmin to
consult the relevant TID explaining how to permanently fix the issue.
[fbui: added the detection part]
[fbui: fixes bsc#1089761]
