ACPI: Properly clear flags on false-positives and send uevent onsudden unplug

From: Holger Macht
Date: Wed Aug 06 2008 - 11:56:42 EST


Some devices emit a ACPI_NOTIFY_DEVICE_CHECK while physically unplugging
even if the software undock has already been done and dock_present() check
fails. However, the internal flags need to be cleared (complete_undock()).

Also, even notify userspace if the dock station suddently went away
without proper software undocking.
