We've checked the target object already in acpi_hotplug_notify_cb() or in
acpi_eject_store().

Which is telling me that the previous version of the patch was better after
all, because the hotplug.enabled thing takes precedence over
acpi_force_hot_remove in the other places.  So this:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/3135841/

is the right version.  Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks,
Rafael
