There is code in kiwi which should fix that. The method is called relocateGPTAtEndOfDisk and should cleanup the mismatch between new gpt at start and potentially old data at the end gdisk ist called with x e w y but only if gdisk ist part of the initrd. If not you should see a log message "Warning, gdisk tool not found" Could you check that ?
