With a running udev daemon `udevadm trigger --type=devices --action=add`
creates and populates that directory.  This is done at early boot stage
and I'm not able to create a bootable environment where this is not the
case, so I'm lowering the severity to non-RC.

That being said there is no reason to convert the crypttab source
specifications to /dev/block/$maj:$min.  (We do want to do the
conversion when traversing the sysfs hierarchy, but for the crypttab
it's unnecessary.)  This commit should do it:
