The 30 second timeout is a udev internal timeout.
udevadm settle waits for that amount of time for all events to be processed.

Apparently, simply backgrounding the process via "&" is no longer
sufficient to make udev consider this event to be processed.
I suspect open file descriptors, but I still need to figure out all the
details. The subshell is only a workaround I quickly came up with.
