[Bug 1672530] [NEW] Large amount of message "localhost systemd-udevd[25252]: Process '/bin/chmod 0666 ' failed with exit code 1." logged to syslog

[Karl-Philipp Richter]

Public bug reported:

The message `localhost systemd-udevd[25252]: Process '/bin/chmod 0666 '
failed with exit code 1.` makes up more than 50 % of `/var/log/syslog`.
It is not useful without further information and either those should be
added, the message be suppressed or the reason for it be fixed.
