I'm not sure this patch is the best way to do it. There are other devices like your iRIVER that choke (sometimes) on PREVENT-ALLOW commands, but they definitely _do_ have removable media. Rather than turn off the RMB flag in the device structure, it would be better to suppress sending the commands at the appropriate spots in the sd driver.
