Problem:
Since after resizing a swap file system gparted always changes its UUID, several problems appear:
1. fstab needs to be modified so that the swap can be swapon properly in the next reboot.
2. /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume stalls so that hibernate does not work anymore.

Expected:
Resizing or moving a swap file system should not change its present UUID just like what happens when resizing other file systems of type ext2 or reiserfs.
