From: Zhang Rui <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
"/sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/.../eject" is used to evaluate _EJx method
and eject a device in user space.
But "echo 1 > eject" causes deadlock because
the device hot-removal code will try to remove the "eject" file as a result.
Queues the hot-removal function for deferred execution in this patch.
