Currently, any config changes to a backend require a restart of the
volume service to be reliably applied, shares included. Some changes
work for shares, some don't, which is a dangerous place to be. If
we're going to look at restartless config changes, then I thing we
should look at how it could be generalised for every backend, not just
shared fs ones.
