This bug also appears when using LVM mirrors at least when resyncing.

For testing purposes I have created six LVM partitions on two physical
drives:

These partitions will be resynced on every boot, because they have been
created using lvcreate -m1 --corelog.

This resync produces several times the error message
udevd-work[***]: rename(/dev//.udev-tmp, /dev//) failed: Invalid cross-device 
link

Most often the boot is successful, but sometimes it fails in different
ways, hangs, fails to bring up bridged networking, fails to autostart
virtual guests. Since this is a test setup for a new server and I'm
getting all these problems, I'm considering changing to some other
distro especially if Ubuntu is giving these problems low priorities.
