udev and kmod do not have any dependencies on lvm2 or cryptsetup. The
issue is that lvm2/cryptsetup[static] need the libkmod.a and libudev.a
static libraries.

There is a hack in our udev and kmod ebuilds that makes it possible to
build the static libraries, but I think we should remove that hack since
upstream bans building them.
