Hello,

After digging in the kernel, it is a new kernel feature.

In kernel source files :

block/partitions/core.c

have been changed.

To get parted-3.3 working again, in the source code of parted-3.3, 
modify the file:

libparted/arch/linux.c

in the function :

static int _disk_sync_part_table()

line 3203, replace :

if (ok [i - 1] || errnums [i - 1] == ENXIO
by
if (ok [i - 1] || errnums [i - 1] == ENOMEM

Accordingly to the changes made in block/partitions/core.c
That is making parted working again.

Alain
