Subject: [PATCH 2/2] util-linux: resizepart: Utility to resize a partition

A simple user space utility to resize an existing partition. It tries to read
the start of partiton from sysfs.

This is a real quick dirty patch I used for my testing. I am sure there
are better and faster ways of getting to partition "start" from device
and partition number.

+
+.SH PARAMETERS
+.TP
+.I device
+Specify the disk device.
+.TP
+.I partition
+Specify the partition number.
+.TP
+.I length
+Specify the length of the partition (in 512-byte sectors).
+

+.BR delpart (8),
+.BR fdisk (8),
+.BR parted (8),
+.BR partprobe (8),
+.BR partx (8)
+.SH AVAILABILITY
