When a blkfront device is resized from dom0, emit a KOBJ_CHANGE uevent to
notify the guest about the change. This allows for custom udev rules, such
as automatically resizing a filesystem, when an event occurs.

Looks pretty reasonable.
Could you confirm what the udevadm --monitor --kernel --udev emits when this happens?
Thanks!

Relevant output:
KERNEL[577.206230] change /devices/vbd-51728/block/xvdb (block)
UDEV [577.226218] change /devices/vbd-51728/block/xvdb (block)
Of course, this is missing without the patch.
