[Bug 37434] Re: hotplug trouble with USB CD-ROM

Hmmm. What I'm observing is that the usb disconnect never seems to trigger an unmount. How long should it take for the kernel to realize the device is really dead? I waited for several minutes and it was still lingering -- that seems odd

Is hotplug normally responsible for the unmount (on a fully installed system)?

Note that the kernel seems to be aware that the underlying block device is no longer available (see: "rejecting command to dead device" in the syslog). Does it log this even while retrying?
