partprobe doesn't include loop devices unless you specify them on the
cmdline.

It looks to me like sgpart or debian does have a problem though, they
should be notifying the kernel of the change when you resize the
partition. If I do the same steps on Fedora, using sgdisk or parted I
don't need to run partprobe for lsblk to show the updated size.
