Our operators had force-faulted a vanilla spare (non-dRAID) with zpool offline -f <tank> <spare-vdev>. They then tried the normal zpool clear <tank> <spare-vdev> to clear the fault, but got this error:
cannot clear errors for <spare-vdev>: device is reserved as a hot spare
We should be able to clear the fault on spares like we do on normal vdevs.
