The script init.d/parted from package parted creates them. The only difference between LVM and MD is that the short program parted_devices (which Marthin has quoted) lists the LVM devices but doesn't list the MD devices. You have two choices: 1. see why parted_devices doesn't work for MD (the bug is somewhere either in libparted or in the kernel) or 2. use a script mk-devices as you do now. I was surprised when I saw for first time in an installation report that partman recognised the LVM devices -- this was before the package partman-lvm was created. I intended to create the device directories for LVM in the same way you do in partman-md but libparted did this part of the work for me.
