Hm, I'm not sure about this. I don't see anything in udev or udisks
which would issue events on bdi devices, and usually they originate
from the kernel. Does this also appear in udevadm monitor --kernel?

In general it should mirror whatever the kernel sends, including
removal ones. However, in this "trigger" case if should only
synthesize change events, of course. I don't believe that this bdi
remove event is originating from udev itself.

Me neither,
http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-bdi
was the closest thing I found.
