Subject: [PATCH 4/8] donot allow to eject the memory device if it is being used
Date: Tue, 26 Jun 2012 17:20:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4FE97EEC.6060008@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4FE97DD5.6030205@cn.fujitsu.com>
We eject the memory device even if it is in use. It is very dangerous,
and it will cause the kernel panicked.
