You probably have a mixture of udev rules in your debian
There must be exactly 1 rule with this content:

95-dm-notify.rules:ENV{DM_COOKIE}=="?*", RUN+="/usr/sbin/dmsetup udevcomplete 
$env{DM_COOKIE}"

(dmsetup udevcomplete)

I assume you have there 2 such rules - when you have just added upstream rules 
- and left in Debian broken rules.
