Brian Behlendorf 11cb9d773f Increase default udev wait time
When creating a new pool, or adding/replacing a disk in an existing
pool, partition tables will be automatically created on the devices.
Under normal circumstances it will take less than a second for udev
to create the expected device files under /dev/.  However, it has
been observed that if the system is doing heavy IO concurrently udev
may take far longer.  If you also throw in some cheap dodgy hardware
it may take even longer.

To prevent zpool commands from failing due to this the default wait
time for udev is being increased to 30 seconds.  This will have no
impact on normal usage, the increase timeout should only be noticed
if your udev rules are incorrectly configured.
