[PATCH net-next] xen-netback: get rid of old udev related code

From: Paul Durrant
Date: Thu Dec 12 2019 - 08:54:38 EST


In the past it used to be the case that the Xen toolstack relied upon
udev to execute backend hotplug scripts. However this has not been the
case for many releases now and removal of the associated code in
xen-netback shortens the source by more than 100 lines, and removes much
complexity in the interaction with the xenstore backend state.

NOTE: xen-netback is the only xenbus driver to have a functional uevent()
method. The only other driver to have a method at all is
pvcalls-back, and currently pvcalls_back_uevent() simply returns 0.
Hence this patch also facilitates further cleanup.
