Subject: Re: [dm-devel] [PATCH v2 3/4] dm ioctl: Allow userspace to suppress
uevent generation

Well, does it also mean that udev will not create /dev/disk/by-* symlinks
(as response to the change udev event followed by internal udev blkid scan)?
If it is a private device, that is ok. But for a visible device I think
that it breaks some assumptions in userspace (presence of symlinks mentioned
above etc).
So, what is the exact use for this patch?
