Yes, for me that's enough. udevstart have been removed at this point.
But imho I would really argue to fix lvm instead of downgrading udev. If
you take a look at the log, there a bunch of bugs that have been
corrected after and might alter the downgraded version as well. So I
can't ensure that it will work. :/
Other distros offer lvm support with recent udev, we should be able to
get it working.

I'm very sorry I don't have the hardware otherwise I would help...
