<pre>The nbd devices are set up loop devices, we first have dead device
nodes, then later we attach stuff behind them. At the time of the udev
creation event, nothing works at nbd devices.
Userspace has no idea when to probe for the device, or when stuff changes,
it needs proper kernel support for that to work, which is as far as I know
not existing.
It is currently blacklisted for that reason, and removing the blacklist
could only happen if the nbd kernel side is changed to send out events
like loop, dm, md are doing it.</pre>
