Could you try increasing udevs debug level (maybe capture via serial
console)? Alternatively could you first check if the scripts called from

	/lib/udev/rules.d/60-kpartx.rules

turn out the expected results? Maybe ENV{DM_STATE} != ACTIVE? or
ENV{DM_TABLE_STATE}!="LIVE"? Running

	/lib/udev/dmsetup_env <major> <minor> 

Should already give a hint.

Sorry for not checking myself but I don't have an up to date system
nearby where I could test this on.
Cheers,
