I just tried the latest HAL git and the same exact problem occured. Then I
applied v2 of the patch you provided above and just added a goto out; line
right after HAL_ERROR so that it would stop addon-storage (otherwise I was
still getting the repeating error message). I am linking a hald log with the
patch against the latest HAL git since it gives me a new error now. I hope
it can provide some more insight. Here is the situation again:

--> Insert USB key
# pmount /dev/sdb1
--> Remove USB key
(Removed usb key stays in the HAL GDL)
