Sorry, I did the wrong thing yesterday, and it doesn't even work (I only
tested the change with an empty drive :( (I noticed it after being back home)
DIOCEJECT is OK, the change needed was to not call DIOCLOCK before if we're
not doing a forcible eject, DIOCEJECT will check open partitions and
unlock the door if it can.
Please don't remember me I'm the one who did the changes to DIOCEJECT :)
