I confirm this. The culprit is this rule in 60-persistent-storage.rules:

# for partitions import parent information
ENV{DEVTYPE}=="partition", IMPORT{parent}="ID_*"

I'm not really sure how exactly to fix it. I.e. normally it is assumed
that device is either partitioned or not. Situation when we have
filesystem on a whole disk *and* individual partitions ... not sure.

I'm interested in which information actually needs to be imported from
parent. May be it should be less aggressive.
