[PATCHv2] nbd: Zero from and len fields in NBD_CMD_DISCONNECT.

From: Hani Benhabiles
Date: Sun May 25 2014 - 18:24:50 EST


Len field is already set to zero, but not the from field which is sent as
0xfffffffffffffe00. This makes no sense, and may cause confuse server
implementations doing sanity checks (qemu-nbd is an example.)

Compared to v1:
* Zero the request structure instead of conditionally zeroing specific fields.
