Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gparted

  On my sata disk, when creating a new GPT partition, then a primary
  ext4 one, then a swap one, Gparted (0.4.8-1ubuntu1) is blocking on
  swap partition creation with an error message saying that the
  /dev/sda2 is busy:

  create new linux-swap file system  00:00:00    ( ERROR )
       	
  mkswap -L "" /dev/sda2
       	
  /dev/sda2: Device or resource busy
