[Bug 1854355] [NEW] LUKS partition on LVM with two disks has wrong device name

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Ubuntu release: Ubuntu Desktop 18.04.2 LTS
Kernel: 5.0.0-36-generic
Storage devices: two NVMe SSDs (1TB and 512GB)
 
Ubuntu Desktop install – selected the options to use disk encryption and LVM
The largest disk (1TB) is used for the Ubuntu install and this has the device name /dev/nvme0n1 in the Ubiquity installer. Install completes and upon rebooting the operating system asks for the encryption passphrase for the LUKS partition (nvme0n1p3_crypt) which does decrypt as expected.
Now when logging in and running lsblk it shows the LUKS partition to be in the wrong place. The 1TB disk now has the name nvme1n1 but the LUKS partition on that disk has the name nvme0n1p3_crypt. 
 
Output of lsblk:
nvme1n1                 259:0    0 953.9G  0 disk
├─nvme1n1p1             259:1    0   512M  0 part  /boot/efi
├─nvme1n1p2             259:2    0   732M  0 part  /boot
└─nvme1n1p3             259:3    0 952.7G  0 part
  └─nvme0n1p3_crypt     253:0    0 952.7G  0 crypt
    ├─ubuntu--vg-root   253:1    0 930.4G  0 lvm   /
    └─ubuntu--vg-swap_1 253:2    0   976M  0 lvm   [SWAP]
nvme0n1                 259:4    0   477G  0 disk
 
The LUKS partition doesn’t appear to under nvme0n1p3 but it does on nvme1n1p3 which can be seen when running a luksDump command.
 
Output of luksDump:
root at USERPC:~# cryptsetup luksDump /dev/nvme0n1p3 | grep -i "slot 0"
Device /dev/nvme0n1p3 doesn't exist or access denied.
root at USERPC:~# cryptsetup luksDump /dev/nvme1n1p3 | grep -i "slot 0"
Key Slot 0: ENABLED

The implications of this so far in my case is not being able to find the
correct LUKS partition device name via custom scripts to populate/modify
key slots (e.g. 'dmsetup ls' returns the device name nvme0n1p3_crypt).
There has not been an issue with Ubuntu decrypting the disk before the
login screen.
