Re: [patch 02/10] emm: notifier logic

It may also be useful to allow invalidate_start() to fail in some contexts
(try_to_unmap f.e., maybe if a certain flag is passed). This may allow the
device to get out of tight situations (pending I/O f.e. or time out if
there is no response for network communications). But then that
complicates the API.
