You are wrong !

How do you know nobody uses udev <= 182 ?? How can you know something
like that, since it is an official release appeared only 6 years ago ??

I do not use systemd, therefore I am using udev released from
kernel.org (<= 182). That certainly proves that you are wrong !

And there are probably several other users in the same situation...

I don't care, it is the least important patch in the set.

I had created the patch for my own system and I thought it could be
useful to other users, as simple as that.

Also the patch has been provided in the belief that backwards
compatibility is much more important than a minor functionality of very
limited use such as uaccess that you mention.
