Not sure. I have it too on my N810. Looks like bug. This line is valid for 770 but makes no sense on N8x0. Maybe they forgot to remove it because it does not hurt. In theory removing it should not break anything.

Card mounting and unmounting is done automagically by /usr/sbin/osso-mmc-[u]mount.sh scripts. These are possibly called from ke-recv or hal stuff in /usr/lib/hal/ when kernel detects opening/closing card doors or inserting/removing usb cable. Not sure how this stuff (ke-recv, hald, /usr/lib/hal/* ) works exactly.
