The REMOVER variable is set to be a command to execute when the
device is removed. The shell script equivalent of a function pointer:-)
This is very much faster then all the lookups and matching that is
done on device add, and is easily tailored to the specific device,
as the device add script can set whatever REMOVER is appropriate.
It is also compatible with the default behavior of ignoring remove.
