Re: [PATCH] xen, fbfront: fix connecting to backend

From: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>
Date: 2017-04-05 08:18:31
Also in: lkml, stable, xen-devel

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.

Bartlomiej, any comments? Can you please take this patch or should I
carry it through the Xen tree?
