I've just checked back and in my case it was /dev/md/n, which are links
to /dev/mdn. I have no /dev/dev.

It sounds like a udev rule may be causing this, possibly an incorrectly
written one, because the /dev part of node names is implicit in udev, so
if you set a name or symlink to dev/foo, you'll get /dev/dev/foo.
