Because "type = DM_DEVICE_REMOVE" is passed via dm_remove().
See the dm_task_create(type) call in run_task, which hence receives a
DM_REMOVE_DEVICE as the type.
Code you reference in rc15 has been added for mapped device UUID
support. It only creates and sets a UUID on DM_DEVICE_CREATE for obvious
reasons.
