Subject[PATCH 2/2] block: avoid to drop & re-add partitions if partitions aren't changed
Date
block ioctl(BLKRRPART) always drops current partitions and adds
partitions again, even though there isn't any change in partitions table.

ioctl(BLKRRPART) may be called by systemd-udevd and some disk utilities
frequently. When it is run, partitions disk node are dropped and added
back, this way may confuse userspace or users, for example, one normal
workable partition device node may disappear any time.

Fix this issue by checking if there is real change in partitions state,
and only drop & re-add them when partitions state is really changed.
