Indeed I have had a few bad experiences with Ubuntu's udev rules, but
never like this...
I don't think a wrong udev rule can hangup the whole machine with such
symptoms, you really think so?
- lvs and/or "lvchange --refresh ..." processes hanging forever in
kernel code (and AFAIR it was in DM region, that's the /proc/pid/stack
trace which I unfortunately lost)
- "sync" also cannot complete, so I can only do force reboot without flush
