sfdisk: wait before re-read
The original old (v2.13) fdisk had sleep(2) beany ideafore re-read ioctl. It
seems overkill, but short sleep is probably a good idea as we call
re-read on sfdisk start and at the end. It's possible that sfdisk is
too fast and the initial re-read is not gone yet.
It would be nice to have something more elegant than sleep, any idea?
