Its up to the underlying driver to determine, but normally returning 
B2S_ENODEV is the right thing to do.  This is indeed what happens with 
my SDcard software.  (And then sd(7d) starts complaining that "Device is 
gone" in syslog...)

The blk2scsa framework itself offers no timeout support... its up to the 
underlying driver to use a timeout timer, if that is appropriate.

Does that make sense?
