[PATCH 3.18 010/124] xen, fbfront: fix connecting to backend

Show all headers | View raw

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>

commit 9121b15b5628b38b4695282dc18c553440e0f79b upstream.

Connecting to the backend isn't working reliably in xen-fbfront: in
case XenbusStateInitWait of the backend has been missed the backend
transition to XenbusStateConnected will trigger the connected state
only without doing the actions required when the backend has
connected.
