Most likely you built your LVM/dm userspace without proper udev
support, or left support in there that creates device nodes on its
own.

Nowadays with devtmpfs device nodes are created exclusively by the
kernel and userspace should never create a single device node. If your
LVM/DM tools still do, then they have been built with incorrect
build-time settings.

Note that LVM/DM issues are probably better discussed at the LVM/DM
mls than here...
