Mikulas Patocka 7533afa1d2 dm: send just one event on resize, not two
Device mapper sends an uevent when the device is suspended, using the
function set_capacity_and_notify. However, this causes a race condition
with udev.

Udev skips scanning dm devices that are suspended. If we send an uevent
while we are suspended, udev will be racing with device mapper resume
code. If the device mapper resume code wins the race, udev will process
the uevent after the device is resumed and it will properly scan the
device.

However, if udev wins the race, it will receive the uevent, find out that
the dm device is suspended and skip scanning the device. This causes bugs
such as systemd unmounting the device - see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2158628

This commit fixes this race.

We replace the function set_capacity_and_notify with set_capacity, so that
the uevent is not sent at this point. In do_resume, we detect if the
capacity has changed and we pass a boolean variable need_resize_uevent to
dm_kobject_uevent. dm_kobject_uevent adds "RESIZE=1" to the uevent if
need_resize_uevent is set.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
