Support for a new command 'btrfs dev forget [dev]' is proposed here
to undo the effects of 'btrfs dev scan [dev]'. For this purpose
this patch proposes to use ioctl #5 as it was empty.
         IOW(BTRFS_IOCTL_MAGIC, 5, ..)
This patch adds new ioctl BTRFS_IOC_FORGET_DEV which can be sent from
the /dev/btrfs-control to forget one or all devices, (devices which are
not mounted) from the btrfs kernel.

The argument it takes is struct btrfs_ioctl_vol_args, and ::name can be
set to specify the device path. And all unmounted devices can be removed
from the kernel if no device path is provided.

Again, the devices are removed only if the relevant fsid aren't mounted.

This new cli can provide..
  . Release of unwanted btrfs_fs_devices and btrfs_devices memory if the
    device is not going to be mounted.
  . Ability to mount the device in degraded mode when one of the other
    device is corrupted like in split brain raid1.
  . Running test cases which requires btrfs.ko-reload if the rootfs
    is btrfs.

One space before : and another one after it please.

 will fix.

Now the more important: don't use strlen, use strnlen. Some malicious
or sloppy user might have passed a non-null terminated string, you
don't want strlen to go past the limits of btrfs_ioctl_vol_args for
obvious reasons.

 Makes sense. Will fix.

Also, please, not just to make a maintainer's life easier, but current
and future reviewers, add the patch version to each patch's subject
and not just the cover letter. Also list (after ---) what changes
between each patch version in the patch itself and not the cover
letter.

 Sure. Thanks for the feedback.
