Preferably lxcproc should stop using hardcoded names and detect devices
it wants to talk to by their subsystem and properties. If it wants to it
could ship some udev rules to help with identification or creating
symlinks; but symlinks aren't supposed to help programs find devices,
they are mostly a "human readable" thing. Thus wontfix in udev itself.

** Changed in: udev (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix
