Ok, since your issue is not related with the original bug reporters issue, it was probably not a good idea to hijack this bug report in the first place. Your problem is, that DEVTMPFS is no longer really optional, and your kernel misses that. We could possibly add a preinst check to udev which bails out or shows a warning if DEVTMPFS is not enabled for self-compiled kernels. Usually, users with self-compiled kernels should keep an eye on such requirements [1], but we can try to be extra-nice. Feel free to file a separate bug report for that.
