not at all. This was a point of friction with Richard Hughes (in charge of
DeviceKit-power, now UPower, and Gnome Power Mgr) since this was (and is
still) too linux centric.

So, these things are still for Linux only.
Otherwise, we would have also addressed this using the detach_endpoint()
method to somehow eject the kernel driver.

I do more think, as Charles stated, that there another instance of the
driver still running.
