When the NBD_CFLAG_DESTROY_ON_DISCONNECT is set, the nbd_genl_connect() 
need to wait for the stale nbd released, and this is what this patch 
supposed to do. Since this flag means the nbd must be release anyway, so 
the release must be done before reuse the same nbd index, or we will hit 
the crash issue and other strange core dumps. So in this case, no need 
to get the set back to false.

I think I have missed the case when this flag is not set.

Will check it.

Thanks.
