send 'change' uevent for device-mapper table resume

[Kay Sievers]

Hi Alasdair,
I'm not sure if Hannes already sent this, if not, please take this into
your tree. As discussed at OLS, this is one step, to make udev's operation
on dm devices more reliable.

Thanks,
Kay

device-mapper: send 'change' uevent for device-mapper table resume

Device-mapper tables are only ever usable after a 'resume'
ioctl has been issued. But to know when this happens we need to
generate an uevent to notify udev, so that it can take appropriate
action.

As discussed with agk and kay at OLS we should be sending 'change' events
for resume; events on suspend don't give you anything interesting and indeed
might lead to failures as any I/O on that table will be blocked anyway.
