Occasionally I see this, too. Today I waited a bit longer and got more
output after some time:

        udevd[422]: timeout: killing '/sbin/modprobe -b acpi:SMO1200:PNP0C31:' 
[444] (repeated many times)

        udevadm settle - timeout of 120 seconds reached, the event queue 
contains:
        ... blurred image ...
        LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:0a/SMO1200:00 (852)
        udevd[422]: timeout: killing '/sbin/modprobe -b acpi:SMO1200:PNP0C31:' 
[444]

(copied from a photo) than the booting process continued as usual.

SMO1200 is my laptop's TPM chip.

Best regards
Uwe
