The patch may make sense but, what does it fix exactly?

                volume&#39;s Removable property in straightforward fashion:
- tries to cast volume&#39;s (immediate) parent device to Solid::StorageDrive
- if that succeeds, checks isHotpluggable() and isRemovable() properties of the \
parent The problem is that there could be intermediate devices in solid device \
hierarchy between the volume and its Solid::StorageDrive ancestor, for example \
partition-type devices.

The proposed code walks up the hierarchy to try harder to find Solid::StorageDrive \
ancestor of a given device.

BTW, I think that getAncestorOfType() helper function introduced in the proposed \
change can be useful for other code too, so it might make sense to nominate it for \
inclusion into Solid API.</pre>  </td>
