No idea.

It is a dependency of lvm2. I asked 'aptitude why dmsetup' on the machine in question. :) > After that the only remaining cause for an extra run is usplash.

My goal for this request was a faster installation. I assume we share that goal, and do not see the point of arguing further for making sure update-initramfs is called as few times as possible.
