Since a long time there has been a proper API for this: just take a BSD file lock on the device node and udev won't bother with the device anymore. As soon as you close the device fully (and thus also lost all locks), udev will notice and then reprobe it again. It's a bit underdocumented, but it's the right way, doesn't leave artifacts in the system around and uses the appropriate OS primitives for what it needs to do. If you need this in shell, then I figure util-linux' flock tool should be something you can make work, as it appears to be a command line wrapper around BSD file locks.
