[arch-projects] [RFC3][PATCH] [mkinitcpio] Cleanly stop udev >= 168 as recommended by upstream.

[Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi]

N0: device-mapper/LVM udev rules must be parsed for initramfs creation
    to add OPTIONS+="db_persist"

>From udev NEWS:
The running udev daemon can now cleanly shut down with:
  udevadm control --exit

Udev in initramfs should clean the state of the udev database
with: udevadm info --cleanup-db which will remove all state left
behind from events/rules in initramfs. If initramfs uses
--cleanup-db and device-mapper/LVM, the rules in initramfs need
to add OPTIONS+="db_persist" for all dm devices. This will
prevent removal of the udev database for these devices.
