The work-around in use:
Remove the multipath udev rules from the initramfs.
Note: this doesn't remove multipath support from it; there's more in there.
Boot from multipath devices works normally (and faster :-)
$ grep 'for rules in' /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/multipath
for rules in 95-multipath.rules; do
$ sudo sed '/for rules in/ s:95-multipath.rules::' -i /usr/share
/initramfs-tools/hooks/multipath
$ grep 'for rules in' /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/multipath
for rules in ; do
$ sudo update-initramfs -u
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.19.0-7-generic
$ sudo reboot
