It should indeed no longer be necessary to do any messing about with
lvm (or anything else) in your script. We now have arrangements to do
the right thing from udev on device detection.
However it would be better if your cryptsetup could run out of udev as
well. Since only one program can take this looping approach, you may
run into difficulties if some other kind of weird block device is
also involved in booting.
