BLKRRPART: Device or resource busy, scale up EBS root volume failed using growpart on AWS

Usually i use growpart to rise up size of my root partition on aws, so that i don't have to reboot

For some reason in one of my instances, it doesn't work anymore:

Version of CLoud-Utils 0.27-0ubuntu9.2, same version and newer ones work on another servers normally!

I tried partx:

# partx --update 1 /dev/xvda
partx: /dev/xvda: error updating partition 1
