Yes, "udevadm trigger" or "udevadm trigger /dev/mapper/loop0p1" works well for that. So we have a work-around at least (thanks to Felipe Sateler for the suggestion, thanks also to Mantas Mikulėnas who taught me about the kernel/udev interactions). But I'm clearly not able to go further than that, debugging the kernel would be too time-consuming for me since I'm not a kernel developer... so I'll stop my investigations here. (Somehow I wonder whether this is not the result of some kernel hardening... limiting the impact of things done within a chroot compared to the main host. schroot also uses private bind mounts, can this be related?)
