<pre>device probing on modern hardware is not deterministic, there's no fixed time
by which hardware has to have shown up. Especially on things like USB or even
network devices like iscsi it's entirely up to the devices to decide when they
show up after the the bus has been powered on. Thus, systemd never can know
whether a device simply hasn't shown up yet, or if it never ever will. Thus we
cannot enter emergency mode after having figured out that a device is invalid,
because we simply don't have that information. Thus the timeout of 90s which
should be a reasonably safe bet for most hardware.</pre>
