Re: [PATCH] settrans -gl only kills the active translator

I have no objection to adding a flag for file_set_translator to avoid
sending the goaway.  But calling the flag "disconnect" is wrong: a
disconnect happens whether you set that flag or not.

I suggest FSYS_GOAWAY_NORPC or FSYS_GOAWAY_NOGOAWAY or something like
that, that accurate describes what the option requests.

As for the shell command settrans, I think that -f should timeout, and
if nothing happens then repeat the call with the new flag attached.
Perhaps there should be a new flag with the current meaning of -f
(that is, set the FORCE bit, but don't bypass the goaway process).
