You're thinking of handling one device in the kernel and the other
one (same ID, same switching procedure) on the outside?
Well, as I said, you'd have to "filter" additional data (USB
model/manufacturer etc., SCSI_INQUIRY strings). But obviously you
would need to have the data of the two devices to note the differences.
BTW, usb_modeswitch does not need SCSI device nodes, because it
talks to the USB device directly via the bulk message layer once the
endpoints are up. Slight advantage over "eject".
Cheers,
Josua
