[Bug 1764104] [NEW] GParted freezes during partition resize

[Sergey Zolotarev]

Public bug reported:

GParted UI becomes unresponsive after some time while resizing an ext2
partition. This has happened to me 2 times in the last day.

System log is filled with over 300MB of this:

blk_partition_remap: fail for partition 5

See the attached compressed syslog file (syslog-short.tar.xz).
