From: Josef Bacik <jbacik@xxxxxx> This is what the ioctl based nbd disconnect does as well. Without this the device will just sit there and wait for the connection to go away (or IO to occur) before the device gets torn down. Instead clear everything up on our end so the configuration goes away as quickly as possible.
