Nevermind, got it: CHANGES WITH 214:
* As an experimental feature, udev now tries to lock the
disk device node (flock(LOCK_SH|LOCK_NB)) while it
executes events for the disk or any of its partitions.
Applications like partitioning programs can lock the
disk device node (flock(LOCK_EX)) and claim temporary
device ownership that way; udev will entirely skip all event
handling for this disk and its partitions. If the disk
was opened for writing, the close will trigger a partition
table rescan in udev's "watch" facility, and if needed
synthesize "change" events for the disk and all its partitions.
This is now unconditionally enabled, and if it turns out to
cause major problems, we might turn it on only for specific
devices, or might need to disable it entirely. Device Mapper
devices are excluded from this logic.
