From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@xxxxxxxxxx> The manpage for 'xl' documents an option to force a block device to be released even if the domain to which it is attached does not co-operate. This option, however, is not implemented. This patch implements the option. NOTE: The documentation is also adjusted since the normal positioning of options is before compulsory parameters. It is also noted that use of the --force option may lead to a guest crash.
