Subject: [PATCH 4/9] aoe: support the forgetting (flushing) of a user-specified AoE target

Users sometimes want to cause the aoe driver to forget a
particular previously discovered device when it is no longer
online.  The aoetools provide an "aoe-flush" command that users
run to perform this administrative task.  The changes below
provide the support needed in the driver.
