At a really quick glance, looks positive to me.  Thanks for working on 
this!  Once this is merged, I'm sure users will thank you too:  people 
will be able to [literally] yank their disks, if they are failing, 
without bringing down the system.

I'm away this weekend, so won't be able to give it an in-depth look 
until next week.

	Jeff
