A simple solution would be for udev to just maintain a list in a flat

upon startup.

And this could/should probably be an append-only file cleared out at
boot, so that the overhead of continually re-reading/re-writing the
file per device node on boot is removed. That'd slow things down for
sure.

Any reader just needs to know to read the whole file in, and either
construct a final lookup table in memory or scan backwards.
