number X, rather than mdX, making it easier to script tests that
use md devices but don't want to make assumptions about any existing
md use (such as in diskless environments).
bypass some extra anti-foot-shooting measures. Currently, its only
effect is to allow detaching a device while it's still open (e.g.,
mounted). This is useful for testing how the system reacts to a disk
suddenly going away, which can happen with some removeable media.
At this point, the force option is only checked on detach, so it
would've been possible to allow the option to be passed with the
MDIOCDETACH operation. This was not done to allow the possibility of
having the force flag influence other tests in the future, which may
not necessarily deal with detaching the device.
