  That is my current work around, but it doesn't turn off the devices.
After some time debugging I realized that there are devices that accepts
SCSI ioctl, someones accept the CD-ROM ioctl - even if it isn't a CD
drive - and the rest don't accept anyone.  But in all the cases the
device continues "on".
