Eeep - I must admit to being somewhat baffled where it is coming from too. Its occurring between the rmmod starting and the userspace notifiers from the syslog ordering but I don't see anything that would queue flushes on the IDE side. The power management does check and issues WIN_FLUSH_CACHE* stuff. The cd layer only seems to issue it in the dvd rw close path and that checks media written and mmc3 bits or in places like cdrom_mrw_exit.
One possibility might be that the specific drive is incorrectly reporting capabilities and register_cdrom is setting cdi->exit as a result. Will try and work out what is going on there tomorrow. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
