Preloading the attached shared library solves the hang on non-udev initrds. Compile with

gcc -shared -fPIC -o no-udev.so UdevDisableLib.c -ldl

Difference seems to be that /dev/mapper/ entries are created a s block devices, not symlinks any more. But that does not hurt in my usecase (kexec will kill the whole initrd immediately afterwards).
