A "coldplug + udevstart" can be simple like this:
  for i in /sys/block/*/*/uevent; do echo 1 > $i; done
  for i in /sys/class/*/*/uevent; do echo 1 > $i; done
  for i in /sys/bus/*/devices/*/uevent; do echo 1 > $i; done

kobject_add() and kobject_del() don't emit hotplug events anymore. Do it
ourselves if we are finished populating the device directory.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
