Do we need a way to force xfsaild to run?

Hi,

This is something I was thinking while working on that buffer retry stuff.

Currently, we have no way to force xfsaild to run, and I was wondering if
somebody has any opinion if it would be useful to create a new xfsctl, to start
xfsaild for debugging purposes, using xfs_io to trigger it.

My specific use case is while testing the code I've been working on for the
buffer retry stuff, where, I need to wait xfsaild to run to trigger the bug,
adding a way to force it, in this case at least, would be useful for me, I could
work on that, but only if somebody else can actually think this to be
interesting, adding a new xfsctl just for 'me' does not sound worth the time :)

Anybody else might have interest on it or maybe this is just a waste of time?

Cheers
