The indentation shows that is is a hard dependency of cryptsetup, which is backed up by reading the ebuild. I expect that it needs the device-maper functionality provided by lvm, in which case you can set the device-mapper-only USE flag to avoid installing the full lvm suite.
Why isn't device-mapper it's own package‽ One which LVM depends on. Multi-Path (as in dm-multipath) can easily be used without LVM.
