[PATCH] nbd: Create size change events for userspace

[Markus Pargmann]

The userspace needs to know when nbd devices are ready for use.
Currently no events are created for the userspace which doesn't work for
systemd.

See the discussion here: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/358

This patch uses a central point to setup the nbd-internal sizes. A ioctl
to set a size does not lead to a visible size change. The size of the
block device will be kept at 0 until nbd is connected. As soon as it
connects, the size will be changed to the real value and a uevent is
created. When disconnecting, the blockdevice is set to 0 size and
another uevent is generated.
