That exactly is the point. There must be no maybe. Gone is gone. Failure is not an option here. Only LLDD knows reliably whether a device is gone and there can be no second guessing by higher levels. Consequently, the LLDD reports it and the higher layers delete the device as gently as possible, but delete it in any case.
