[Bug 53093] sleep.sh never completes, waiting on 'pccardctl eject' because of kernel IDE oops

[Paul Sladen]

Public bug reported:

22357  \_ /bin/sh /usr/share/hal/scripts/hal-system-power-suspend
22358    \_ /bin/bash /usr/sbin/pmi action suspend force
22367      \_ /bin/bash /etc/acpi/sleep.sh force
22379        \_ pccardctl eject

the pcardctl is un-strace-able (nothing is happening) and gdb cannot
attach:

  $ sudo gdb
  (gdb) attach 22379
  Attaching to process 22379
  ptrace: Operation not permitted.

in this case, a PCMCIA SD (IDE) card reader was inserted.  In this case,
the top of the oops is:

Call Trace:
 [sysfs_create_dir+40/112] sysfs_create_dir+0x28/0x70
 [create_dir+18/80] create_dir+0x12/0x50
 [kobject_add+113/224] kobject_add+0x71/0xe0
 [kobject_register+22/96] kobject_register+0x16/0x60
 [add_partition+172/208] add_partition+0xac/0xd0
 [rescan_partitions+232/320] rescan_partitions+0xe8/0x140

and the full (stripped) backtrace, oops and subsequent related messages
will be attached.
