Title:
  Open files on ejected media cause automount of new media to break

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Open a file on a cdrom, perhaps as simply as changing the working
  directory of a shell to a location in /media/cdrom, then eject the
  disc.  The filesystem is forcibly unmounted, so it no longer appears
  in df, mount, or /proc/mounts, though it appears to still actually be
  sort of mounted since you can run stat . from the shell.  The kernel
  begins complaining filling /var/log/kern.log with messages like:

  VFS: busy inodes on changed media or resized disk sr0

  At this point the drive has vanished from view in nautilus.  It no
  longer appears on the places menu or in the computer folder.  If you
  insert a different disc it also will not show up in nautilus and you
  can not mount it through the gui until whichever processes that still
  have file descriptors open on files on the ejected media are closed.
