8.21 Get Extended Media Change Status (FN 49h)

This function returns media change status. If it returns with CF = 1b, the media may not have been changed. The media change notification may be activated by unlocking and locking the device door without removing the media. This function corresponds to INT 13h FN 16h, but explicitly allows any device number to be passed in. If a non-removable device supports the Device Locking and Ejecting interface subset, this function shall return with success, AH = 00h, CF = 0b. This function shall clear the media change notification on exit.
