nbd: fsync and kill block device on shutdown

Browse Source 
There are two problems with shutdown in the NBD driver.

1: Receiving the NBD_DISCONNECT ioctl does not sync the filesystem.

   This patch adds the sync operation into __nbd_ioctl()'s
   NBD_DISCONNECT handler.  This is useful because BLKFLSBUF is restricted
   to processes that have CAP_SYS_ADMIN, and the NBD client may not
   possess it (fsync of the block device does not sync the filesystem,
   either).

2: Once we clear the socket we have no guarantee that later reads will
   come from the same backing storage.

   The patch adds calls to kill_bdev() in __nbd_ioctl()'s socket
   clearing code so the page cache is cleaned, lest reads that hit on the
   page cache will return stale data from the previously-accessible disk.

Example:

    # qemu-nbd -r -c/dev/nbd0 /dev/sr0
    # file -s /dev/nbd0
    /dev/stdin: # UDF filesystem data (version 1.5) etc.
    # qemu-nbd -d /dev/nbd0
    # qemu-nbd -r -c/dev/nbd0 /dev/sda
    # file -s /dev/nbd0
    /dev/stdin: # UDF filesystem data (version 1.5) etc.

While /dev/sda has:

    # file -s /dev/sda
    /dev/sda: x86 boot sector; etc.
