Subject: [PATCH] Fix resync remote devices on receive PDU in worker mode.
 (#7815)

The replication client requires that arguments are given as keyword
arguments, which was not done in this case. We also pull out the logic
so that we can catch and handle any exceptions raised, rather than
leaving them unhandled.
