So since we still have no information about that
/etc/udev/rules.d/udev.rules file, it seems it could potentially be on
all old arch systems (2007 or older).
Should the kernel post_upgrade either display a warning or just remove
that file automatically ?
A warning could be safer if a user used this file for custom rules.
