Wrong - that is also affected.
So there is a new general constraint that a table must be loaded into a
device before another device's table can reference that device. (The
stacked device handling in lvm2 as supported by libdevmapper should
always be doing this.)
(The original implementation had to be a bit loose to accommodate
multipath device paths that were essentially placeholders at the point
they got set up.)
