Are you talking about a PCI device removal handler or a SCSI error
handler?

PCI surprise removal should generally work. But it's somewhat unusual
for a SCSI host to evaporate in the middle of error handling. After all,
the main purpose of eh is to leverage the interfaces provided by the
host to try to reconnect to a target that tripped and fell off the
bus...
