Sure, thanks.  I can't test the patch, tho.  At least not yet.

CD layer is in several reports, I also have reports with SD, and
a bunch of reports that I still have to look at. E.g.

		schedule
		blk_queue_enter
		blk_mq_alloc_request
		scsi_execute_cmd
		ioctl_internal_command
		scsi_set_medium_removal
		sd_release
		blkdev_put

cd->lock still falls a victim of
"blk_queue_enter() and blk_queue_start_drain() are both called under ->open_mutex"
thingy, which seems like a primary problem here.  No matter why
blk_queue_enter() sleeps, draining under ->open_mutex, given that what we
want to drain can hold ->open_mutex, sometimes isn't going to drain.

Hmm, that's an interesting idea.  I've only tried to "unsafely"
remove a USB stick out of my laptop so far, with no success.
