Subject: [PULL] NBD changes

Hi Jens,

This pull request contains 5 patches which are mainly cleanups.

Patch 1 fixes some unnecessarily complicated code I introduced some versions
ago for debugfs.

Patch 2 removes the criticised signal usage within NBD to kill the NBD threads
after a timeout. This code was used for the last years and is now replaced by
simply killing the tcp connection.

Patches 3-5 are some smaller cleanups.

Happy new year.

Best Regards,

Markus
