If you can get past the udev inotify storm there's a quick way to remove
the "watch" entries instead of reverting the package:

sudo -i
for rule in /lib/udev/rules.d/*; do sed -i 's/watch//g' $rule; done
/etc/init.d/udev restart
exit

I'm attaching a udev_log=debug captured via serial console at boot. This
is from a test-bed system configured with:

sda1 /boot (ext3)
sda2 swap
sda3 / (ext3)
sda4 LVM vgroup Ubuntu

In the LVM is /dev/mapper/Ubuntu-home (ext3) which has an entry in
/etc/fstab

UUID=a3522871-8fae-4b77-8800-8fad4297987a       /home   ext3
defaults,errors=remount-ro      0       1

When the system was first created lvm2 wasn't installed (the LVM was
created from a live-CD session and I initially forgot to install lvm2 to
the target chroot!).

The first time the installed system started there was no problem with
udev. I installed lvm2 and rebooted it and instantly it hit the event
storm.
