    libparted: fail (don't just warn) upon failure to inform kernel of...
    
    partition change(s).
    * libparted/arch/linux.c (_disk_sync_part_table): Throw an error, not
    merely a warning.  When this fails, it indicates that the kernel has
    not been informed, and that must translate to an error, since doing
    otherwise would violate the contract of ped_disk_commit_to_os.
    Suggested by Hans De Goede.
