Work around LVM/cryptsetup errors like:
semid 32768: semop failed for cookie 0xd4d41f4: incorrect semaphore state
Failed to set a proper state for notification semaphore identified by cookie value 223166964 (0xd4d41f4) to initialize waiting for incoming notifications.
and (when running "cryptsetup --debug"):
Uevent not generated! Calling udev_complete internally to avoid process lock-up.
Here for some reason libdm *thinks* that the uevent hasn't been
emitted, so it calls udev_complete. But the uevent actually *has*
been emitted, so udev calls dmsetup udevcomplete as well, leading to
a race.
This is probably a reoccurence of the problem described here:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2011-August/msg00075.html
http://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-lvm/2011-September/msg00023.html
which was fixed in the kernel, so it's not clear why it's surfacing
again. Maybe netlink_broadcast_filtered() has started returning some
other bogus error code.
