It is better to change the owner of the LVM to oracle and set the permissions to crw-------.
This prevents users from snooping around in your tablespaces. Since the oracle executable file
($ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle) has the setuid bit set and is owned by oracle, your users don't need
even read privileges on the DB files or raw partitions.
