rules: avoid traversing parent of every single device?

Hi,

I've been looking at what is responsible for all the path lookup activity in coldplug. On my debian stable system, it looks like every device gets its parent looked up in sysfs. I think this is due to SUBSYSTEMS matches.

I see the udev default rules are different, but it looks like they still test for SUBSYSTEMS on every single device:

SUBSYSTEMS=="scsi", ATTRS{type}=="1|8", GROUP="tape"
SUBSYSTEMS=="scsi", ATTRS{type}=="4|5", GROUP="cdrom"
SUBSYSTEMS=="scsi", ATTRS{type}=="0", GROUP="disk"


Should we add SUBSYSTEM="scsi_generic" to these three rules?

Thanks
Alan
