While working on some HAL issues I hit some not clear - to me at least - 
behavior. I was testing HAL Eject method that under Linux effectively 
calls 'eject /dev/block'. Now for USB stick - at least, that I have, this 
results in "ejecting medium" without apparently any way to get it back (the 
only way is to replug stick).

UEVENT[1152175788.114199] remove@/block/sda/sda1
ACTION=remove
DEVPATH=/block/sda/sda1
SUBSYSTEM=block
SEQNUM=1332

PHYSDEVBUS=scsi
PHYSDEVDRIVER=sd

In this state I do see device:

{pts/0}% sudo sdparm -a /dev/sda
    /dev/sda:           128MB             2.00
{pts/0}% cat /proc/scsi/scsi
Attached devices:
Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
  Vendor:          Model: 128MB            Rev: 2.00
  Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 02

but any attempt to get partition back results in

{pts/0}% LC_ALL=C sudo blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sda
/dev/sda: No medium found

I tried 'sdparm -C start' without much success as well:

{pts/0}% LC_ALL=C sudo sdparm -v -C start /dev/sda
    /dev/sda:           128MB             2.00
    Start stop unit command: 1b 00 00 00 01 00
{pts/0}% LC_ALL=C sudo blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sda
/dev/sda: No medium found

Well, I just try to understand if this is a expected (and reasonable) 
behaviour or a bug in hardware or possibly software?

Thank you
