The rules may still be called with the device suspended and then block
udev to handle further rules and events, including the callback to the
devmapper tools. This is a classic race condition and I have no recipe
for this yet.

 Hopefully this addresses your remaining complaints in a sufficient manner so 
 the
  conflicts in dmsetup can be removed again.

I accept that for now. But if it starts to break things I'll come back.

 This patch should use an apropriate whitelist.

So, here is a status update on this issue:
What happened so far is, that I removed the blkid call for dm devices.
I also dropped the devkit-disks-dm-export prober altogether and instead rely on
the information setup by dmsetup/cryptsetup.

The last bit is the devkit-disks-part-id prober.

Unfortunately I can't just drop this prober completely for all dm/md devices, as
you might have partitioning information on such a device.

Discussing with upstream, 95-devkit-disks.rules was changed to only act on
change events (and not add|change) and I additionally added a rule to skip
devices where DM_HIDE==1 is set.

The latest state is at
http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-utopia/devicekit-disks.git;a=summary

and I plan to upload that soonish as 009-1.

Hopefully this addresses your remaining complaints in a sufficient manner so the
 conflicts in dmsetup can be removed again.

 What? Where?

| KERNEL==fd*|mtd*|nbd*|gnbd*|btibm*, GOTO=probe_parttable_end
| IMPORT{program}=devkit-disks-part-id $tempnode
| LABEL=probe_parttable_end

devkit-disks-part-id opens the temporary device node to read data from
it.
