Hello James,

I think that's a good start but not a full solution. The block layer queue
still needs to be restarted to make sure that any requests that got queued
after the transition to the SDEV_BLOCK state and before the transition to
SDEV_DEL get processed. Anyway, I will see whether I can come up with a
patch based on this approach.

Bart.
