UDev follows the kernel given name, and re-uses the kernel created
device node. If the kernel and spcecified udev rules disagree, the
udev specified node node is created and the kernel-created on is
deleted.
I don't see any security implications, to be actually useful,
/dev/cpu/<n>/cpuid should be world readable. The cpuid instruction
can be called from userspace anyway, so there is nothing to hide.
The device does not support any write operation, so 0444 should
suffice.

Instead of of our own private monitor socket, we send the
processed event back to our netlink socket, to the multicast
group 2 -- so any number of users can listen to udev events,
just like they can listen to kernel emitted events on group 1.
$env{ID_PATH} includes the "-nst" suffix anyway, so we shouldn't append
it a second time as part of the rule creating the device file symlink.

A note on /dev/raw1394's security implications:
1. You cannot access local memory through raw1394, except
for ROMs and CSRs that are exposed to other nodes any way.
2. It is extremely hard to manipulate data on attached
SBP-2 devices (FireWire storage devices).
3. You can disturb operation of the FireWire bus, e.g.
creating a DoS situation for audio/video applications, for
SBP-2 devices, or eth1394 network interfaces.
4. If another PC is attached to the FireWire bus, it may be
possible to read or overwrite the entire RAM of that remote PC.
This depends on the PC's configuration. Most FireWire controllers
support this feature (yes, it's not a bug, or at least wasn't
intended to be one...) but not all OSs enable the feature.
Actually, a cheap setup to achieve #1 by #4 is to have two
FireWire controllers in the PC and connect them.
