udevd sets the buffer size to 16Mb since some time, without fiddling
around with the global sysctrls:
  http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=blob;hb=HEAD;f=udevd.c#l781

If that's not working, it's probably a kernel bug on your architecture.
Works fine for me, here is a big buffer filled up with a stopped udevd:
