[PATCH] xen: fix frontend driver disconnected from xenbus on removal

From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko
Date: Thu Feb 01 2018 - 03:57:43 EST


From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko <oleksandr_andrushchenko@xxxxxxxx>

Current xenbus frontend driver removal flow first disconnects
the driver from xenbus and then calls driver's remove callback.
This makes it impossible for the driver to listen to backend's
state changes and synchronize the removal procedure.

Fix this by removing other end XenBus watches after the
driver's remove callback is called.
