Ok, it seems we're currently doing the same work two times. I've also got
a patch for this. Already tested, so please have a look if this would also
match your requirements:

Handle bay devices in dock stations

* Differentiate between bay devices in dock stations and others:

- When an ACPI_NOTIFY_EJECT_REQUEST appears, just signal uevent to
userspace (that is when the optional eject button on a bay device is
pressed/pulled) giving the possibility to unmount file systems and to
clean up. Also, only send uevent in case we get an
ACPI_NOTIFY_EJECT_REQUEST without doing anything else. In other cases,
you'll get an add/remove event because libata attaches/detaches the
device.

- In case of a dock event, which in turn signals an
ACPI_NOTIFY_EJECT_REQUEST, immediately detach the device, because it
may already have been gone

* In case of an ACPI_NOTIFY_DEVICE/BUS_CHECK, evaluate _STA to check if
the device has been plugged or unplugged. If plugged, hotplug it, if
unplugged, just signal event to userspace
