[SOLVED] Silent Boot - Systemd not shutting up

I have followed all the instructions over here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Silent_boot

I have done everything. But Systemd still won't fully shut up. There is a line on every boot: "Starting version 218" (I believe it is stating systemd's version)
I don't think I get this message on my previous arch installation about 2 years ago.

The Arch installation is fresh and fully updated.
I am using rEFInd as my boot loader. Here is the menu entry that I use

menuentry "Arch Linux" {
        icon            /EFI/refind/icons/os_arch.png
        volume          Boot
        loader          /vmlinuz-linux
        initrd          /initramfs-linux.img
        graphics        on
        options         "root=UUID=4b3977bd-a39f-46ab-980f-648c695a0554 rootfstype=ext4 rw add_efi_memmap quiet loglevel=3 vga=current rcutree.rcu_idle_gp_delay=1 "
}

Anybody know how to get rid of this?
At the very least anybody know who is spewing this line? systemd? rEFInd?

Thanks.

add rd.udev.log-priority=3 to your kernel command line.

Thank you karol. I searched a post titled like that but couldnt find it last night, probably due to my sleep deprivation.
