Introduce --deconfigure-all feature, which will remove all available
settings from the mentioned device. A typical device can have 10
different site-specific settings, active settings, persistent
settings and sometimes auto-configured settings configured in it.
--deconfigure-all can be used to remove all of them with a single
command.
usage: chzdev -D <device-id>
chzdev --deconfigure-all <device-id>

Some Linux distributions always include a copy of all persistent device
configuration data when updating the initial RAM-disk. This makes
chzdev's persistent device configuration changes ineffective because
device configuration directives applied in the RAM-disk take precedence
over those stored in the root filesystem.
This patch introduces a new build-time switch which allows distributions
to specify that whenever there is a persistent device configuration
change, the RAM-disk is updated automatically.
This feature can be enabled by adding 'ZDEV_ALWAYS_UPDATE_INITRD=1' as
a zdev build option. Where, by default ZDEV_ALWAYS_UPDATE_INITRD is 0.
