Good, the changeset looks sane, please split the whole change into
logical and incremental changes, in the following order for example:
- fixes & typo fixups
- API export
- new API
- initial ufs cmd changes to accept subcommands
- add subcommands

Those commands are nice but I would like a way to "protect" those
so you can't change the LUNs desc accidentally, like perhaps
an intermediate command like "ufs allow-modify-desc" which asks
for a confirmation in order to call other commands which can
modify the descriptors.

Thanks,
Neil
