Apparantly the other partitions of the device (ex. sdb1, sdb3) are
still considered nodes.  udev also seems to ignore them and hotplug
does not remove these nodes when the device is unplugged.

Additionally, when plugged back in, the device won't recreate the
nodes unless ALL of them are deleted, and even then its a hit and miss
as to whether it will decide to create them.
