this is not exact, there is some devfs support in lvm 0.9, or
0.8 in kernels >= 2.4.0-test8, but it does not work!!!

i had to patch the lvm tools so they don't remove the /dev/<vgname> directory

also from my brief testing it seems that devfs tries to create the
/dev/vg/group node when activating the vg (while this should be done
during vgscan), but does not create the lv defice files.

L.
