>Description:
	If one issues an "atacontrol detach chanel" command, the chanel will
	be detached even if there is a filesystem mounted on an attached
	device. Trying to unmount the filesystem hangs the system. It happened
	to me when I issued the atacontrol and umount commands in the wrong
	order.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Supposing one has a hard drive at ad2 (master at chanel 1) with a valid
	disklabel...

	# mount /dev/ad2s1a /mnt
	# atacontrol detach 1
	# umount /mnt
>Fix:

	Either atacontrol or the kernel should refuse to detach a busy channel.
