I don't think this is an isolated bug.  It is happening to me too.

On my system, I notice that /dev/disk/by-uuid does not contain the dm-0 partition. On another computer, /dev/disk/by-uuid has dm-0 and dm-1 in it. So maybe when initramfs tries to mount it by UUID, it can't find it and it fails.

When I boot, it drops me to the initramfs shell. To continue the boot process, I have to type the following commands at the initramfs prompt:

modprobe dm_mod
modprobe ext3
cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 root
^D

Some more info...
