Let me add some notes that help to understand vold and to
fix hald.....
Using O_EXCL is definitely not the right solution.
The right way to deal with this hald induced problem is to
change hald to not access the drive later than 3 seconds
after a medium change indication has been reveived and in any
othe case not to send any SCSI command other than INQUIRY and TEST_UNIT_READY.
Note that even INQUIRY and TEST_UNIT_READY should not be issued more
than once every 3 seconds.
