Yes. Part of the reason I wanted to separate these two conversations
I knew something was going on.

Similar patches are in the Greg's tree already.

Taking a look.

I just can't get past the fact in that the only reason hibernation can
not use the widely implemented and tested probe/remove is because of
filesystems on block devices, and that you are proposing to add 4
methods for each and every driver to handle that case, when they
don't need ANYTHING!

I wonder how hard teaching the upper layers to deal with
hotplug/remove is?

It looked _too_ hard when I was looking... at least if we are thinking
off "keep the filesystem mounted over unplug-replug".

Or do you have something else in mind?
