Bug Description
On a object server, if an operator removes the wrong drive by accident, the disk remains mounted from the OS perspective.
The swift-drive-audit could handle this sort of problem because the disk is removed from /proc/partitions but currenlly it does not unmount the disk
The regex will likely match the error messages the OS or disk controller produces, but as an entry in /proc/partitions is now gone, the run of swift-drive-audit will not be able to match the major/minor pair to a /proc/partitions line and it therefore won't try to unmount the disk.
This can also happen if a disk logically fails - we see occasion disk locks ups whick do not get caught by swift-drive-audit also.
