(udev/eudev/vdev/mdev) being necessary to have a dynamic /dev. Dynamic
/dev has been managed by the kernel from many years. The hotpluggers do
other things, like managing the symlinks in /dev/disk/by-* and they are
usefull for that. But, even if you remove the hotplugger, if the kernel
has the DEVTMPFS feature enabled (which is likely), it will create and
delete the device files.
