From: Martin Wilck <mwilck@xxxxxxxx>
DM_SUBSYSTEM_UDEV_FLAG0 is used to indicate that upper layer
udev rules don't need to be processed for multipath maps, e.g.
for map reloads.
However, this can fail if maps were created during initrd processing,
but udev processing for the change events of these maps didn't
complete because udevd was killed to switch root. So, in the coldplug
case, play safe and process the rules once more.
