For udevd there is no init.d script and manual page is not indicating how to restart it either. The process is holding a deleted file (lsof shows) and I need to release it by restarting udevd.
How to reload/restart udevd on CentOS?

You are correct there is no init script. To restart the udevd run the following command:
# /sbin/start_udev
Hope that works!

This is the answer. Kudos @prateek61. (Though I would personally use a `killall udevd` command first.) – rsaw Aug 05 '16 at 01:45
