The correct way to solve this problem is to add dependencies (dynamic!!!!!)
to udev actions, queue them, and run them in the right order.

It is a difficult problem to solve properly, but it is one that will have to
be solved for a fully assynchronous userspace handling using udev.

For the RTC subset, we cannot support anything more than "don't do anything
complex at coldplug" at this time."

So do NOT ifup anything at coldplug, do NOT mount filesystems at coldplug,
do NOT do anything other than setup hardware at coldplug. And that's it.
