commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=cbe725d755006e41a71180b5786fa9f52104f518
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

The following error occures in the udev init script because the kernel config
may optionally not include uevent_helper.

/etc/init.d/S10udev: line 47: can't create /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug: nonexistent directory

Work around this by not trying to access the destination if it's not available.
