From: Josef Bacik <jbacik@xxxxxx> If our device loses its connection for longer than the dead timeout we will set NBD_DISCONNECTED in order to quickly fail any pending IO's that flood in after the IO's that were waiting during the dead timer. However if we re-connect at some point in the future we'll still see this DISCONNECTED flag set if we then lose our connection again after that, which means we won't get notifications for our newly lost connections. Fix this by just clearing the DISCONNECTED flag on reconnect in order to make sure everything works as it's supposed to.
