Why look for libudev?

Any particular reason why

https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCT-Thunk-Interface/blob/3277d5354ed623598a5cea82cc3790a577af177c/CMakeLists.txt#L195

this was added to ROCm 4.5.0? (pinging @kentrussell)

I don't see it being used in the code at all.

It blocks automated builds of this package as reported for instance here https://github.com/spack/spack/issues/28398

This is a remnant of some old requirements (https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/rocminfo/issues/9). With a static thunk and with packaging being more fleshed out, we can remove this requirement.

I have made a change internally and it should be out for our next release (removing zlib and libudev requirements). Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

Sorry for leaving this open so long. Removed as of ROCm 5.3
