Bug description:
Base on lwn 837033 [0], Linux 4.12 introduced two new uevents "bind"
and "unbind" to the Linux device model which resulted in a number of
software issues.
So in this PR [1] which minimize issues resulting from this kernel
change (but not avoid them entirely) by make uevent "sticky", meaning
that once a tag is assigned to a device it will not be removed from
the device again until the device itself is removed (i.e. unplugged).
An example causing by this issue, I had a usb printer (non-ippusbxd)
which connected to my laptop, but after unplugging it from my laptop,
the .device unit were still present, if a different printer gets
plugged to the same USB port then, it won't be configured correctly.
