Having no personal experience with either udevinfo or udevadm, I
searched around the web a little, and came to the conclusion that it
should be pretty safe to change from udevinfo to udevadm.
I found entries in many bug tracking systems about this deprecation
warning and all have been fixed by replacing udevinfo.
This commit in the docs of udev finally convinced me that it is the
"right thing"[tm] to do:
