@raharper To my understanding with the change action udev removes the DEVLINKS which are not still valid. Udev can't tell which links are still valid in cache/by-*.

The only reason udev knows about the links is because the rule added them with SYMLINK+= when the dev was created and it is a sane assumption that when a change action appears with DEVLINKS only the new DEVLINKS are valid. Hence the fix.
