[ale] usb massstorage thinks it's RO?

[Robert.L.Harris at rdlg.net (Robert L. Harris)]

  Just put my usb flash card in my machine at work.  I had the switch
set to RO but need to update some files.  Removed the device, flipped
the switch to RW mode and re-inserted.  

SCSI device sda: 64512 512-byte hdwr sectors (33 MB)
sda: Write Protect is on

Is something cached?  USB is compiled into the kernel, no modules.
Anyway to clear this short of a reboot?



:wq!
