Bug#283303: [sparc] updated parted_server.c patch

[Jurij Smakov <jurij@wooyd.org>]

Hi again,

After looking at the sources more carefully, it was noted that 
ped_disk_commit() just calls two other functions, 
ped_disk_commit_to_dev() and ped_disk_commit_to_os(). The latter causes 
the kernel to re-read the partition table, causing a hang if swap is 
active. Since we are not modifying the partition table during filesystem 
creation, re-reading isn't necessary, and calling ped_disk_commit_to_dev() 
works fine with active swap. So, the only modification necessary to 
resolve the problem is the following change to parted_server.c:

         if (fs != NULL)

Thanks to Thiemo Seufer for helping out with debugging.
