remove "all_partitions" option
We can not predict the major/minor of non-existing devices: $ grep . /sys/class/block/sd*/dev /sys/class/block/sda1/dev:259:524288 /sys/class/block/sda2/dev:259:262144 /sys/class/block/sda3/dev:259:786432 /sys/class/block/sda4/dev:259:131072 /sys/class/block/sda/dev:259:0 /sys/class/block/sdb/dev:259:655360 /sys/class/block/sdc/dev:259:393216 If this functionality is still needed for some broken hardware, it needs to be solved with a tool not part of the udev package. Because such option is unreliable and unsafe to use.
