How do you issue an eject command without a /dev/sgX node?
You're thinking of handling one device in the kernel and the other
one (same ID, same switching procedure) on the outside?
Well, as I said, you'd have to "filter" additional data (USB
model/manufacturer etc., SCSI_INQUIRY strings). But obviously you
would need to have the data of the two devices to note the differences.
BTW, usb_modeswitch does not need SCSI device nodes, because it
talks to the USB device directly via the bulk message layer once the
endpoints are up. Slight advantage over "eject".
