The problem I observed is that there were two connect attempts (one triggered
via udev and one via the test itself) which disturbed the test. The interference
resulted into a complete hang of the test case:

Yes, that should do the decoupling between udev and blktests.

Do you mean that nvme-cli will ignore the udev trigger when a different hostnqn
is invovled? At least for the well-known discover controller the hostqnq
doesn't work. Though not sure if I understood you correctly here.
