Some devices emit a ACPI_NOTIFY_DEVICE_CHECK while physically unplugging even if the software undock has already been done and dock_present() check fails. However, the internal flags need to be cleared (complete_undock()). Also, even notify userspace if the dock station suddently went away without proper software undocking.
