[PATCH 1/2] xen: do not set xenstored_ready before xenbus_probe on hvm

From: stefano . stabellini
Date: Tue Oct 05 2010 - 08:51:12 EST


From: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Register_xenstore_notifier should guarantee that the caller gets
notified even if xenstore is already up.
Therefore we revert "do not notify callers from
register_xenstore_notifier" and set xenstored_read at the right time for
PV on HVM guests too.
In fact in case of PV on HVM guests xenstored is ready only after the
platform pci driver has completed the initialization, so do not set
xenstored_ready before the call to xenbus_probe().

This patch fixes a shutdown_event watcher registration bug that causes
"xm shutdown" not to work properly.
