Thank you for the advice and I will add it.

When eject is not happening, the eject_stat is null so the procedure will go to
eject_end without changing anything.

Acutally I have used checkpatch.pl but haven't found a warning on this
line:
  total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 199 lines checked

The last commit of checkpatch.pl in my code base is 184b8f7f91ca. Anyway,
thank you for the reminder I will remove the cast from next version :)

I use this lock to prevent the eject_state from being freed during a query
since any status change might still happen. For example, the userland process
could be preempted before accessing eject_state and then the eject_state could
be quickly freed due to eject failure or eject completion. [The free opertion
is implemented in acpi_free_eject_stat()]
