usb: gadget: f_mass_storage: forced_eject attribute
It allows to reset prevent_medium_removal flag and "eject" the image.
This can be useful to free the drive from a hunging host or if the host
continues to use the drive even after unmounting (Linux does this).
It's also a bit like using an unfolded paperclip on an optical drive.
Previously, the undocumented method of sending SIGUSR1 to a special
"file-storage" kernel thread could be used for these purposes,
but when using multiple storages there was no way to distinguish
one from the other, so we had to send a signal to everyone.
