That's right; enabling devtmpfs in my custom kernelmade the problem go
away.

May I ask how you guessed that my problem could be related to this?
I thought udev creating a tmpfs for /dev when devtmpfs is not enabled
was not affecting its subsequent behaviour.

Does this somehow mean that devtmpfs is now required for udev to work
properly, at least in Debian?
