To my knowledge device-mapper is installed by default since it is part of our
distribution. Besides, I do not see what I can do here.
Device mapper is a tool to be called.
If someone call "dmsetup create ..." how should device-mapper know that he
should refuse this request. This is like blaming maintainer of coreutils
because /bin/rm removed certain files.
I have no idea who creates these dm maps.
From the names they look as if they were created by a call to kpartx.
Why kpartx is called for your USB device I do not know, I would suspect
this is done by either hal or udev.
Reassigning to Hannes, maybe he knows why apparently kpartx is called when a
USB stick is inserted.
