Subject: [PATCH 62/89] libparted: avoid disturbing partitions
The partition sync logic was first removing all
partitions, then trying to re-add them. This resulted in many
udev events triggering annoying behavior like auto mounting.
Refactor the code to avoid removing and re-adding unmodified
partitions.

** Bug Fixes
+ Avoid generating udev add/remove events for all unmodified partitions
+ when writing a new table.
+
Fix cache coherency issue by flushing partition block devices.
This had been mistakenly disabled in parted 2.0, and resulted
in parted sometimes identifying the previous filesystem type
