hm. Maybe it's the disk_sysfs_symlinks() changes.
Could someone who can reproduce this please try this revert, on
2.6.19-rc2-mm2 through 2.6.19-rc5-mm1?

Hi,
This patch seems to be working : whereas i had the same oops as Mattia
each time I unplugged my USB external DD drive, now it does not happen
anymore.
Thank you very much for this one !
Best regards,
Cédric
