If the KOBJ_REMOVE was sent already there is no need
to send it again.
One example is when device-mapper device send explicit REMOVE
event with additional DM environment values (cookie) when mapping
table is being destroyed (device is unusable after that) and
underlying block device sends another REMOVE event unconditionally
in its destructor.
