Jens' patch alone does not fix the kernel panic AFAICS. "eject /dev/sdX"
goes through sd_init_command. James, could you put your patch into
scsi-rc-fixes too? And what about -stable?
[BTW, some revisions of iPods require to either "eject" them or to
unload sbp2 or to disassociate them from sbp2 via an arcane echo to
ieee1394's sysfs interface before they can be unplugged. Else their
firmware needs to be reset. This is why "eject" is the recommended
procedure to disconnect an iPod.]
Thanks,
