So that gave me the clue that led to the real problem. The service
is included in the initrd and masking it on the system doesn't change that. Even
re-creating the initrd with dracut after masking didn't change anything.
And also the nm-initrd.service file is in dracut, so you would have to
modify it there (not the system one) to change this.
FWIW, I had a VM which needed a kernel update.
Prior to the update it had references to systemd-udev-settle.service in the logs.
I edited /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/35network-manager/nm-initrd.service to have
DefaultDependencies=no
#Wants=systemd-udev-settle.service
#After=systemd-udev-settle.service
After=dracut-cmdline.service
And I installed the latest kernel.
Now....
[egreshko@f34x ~]$ systemctl status systemd-udev-settle.service ○
systemd-udev-settle.service
Loaded: masked (Reason: Unit systemd-udev-settle.service is masked.)
Active: inactive (dead)
And nothing in the logs about systemd-udev-settle
