Backend drivers shouldn't transistion to CLOSED unless the frontend is
CLOSED.  If a backend does transition to CLOSED too soon then the
frontend may not see the CLOSING state and will not properly shutdown.

So, treat an unexpected backend CLOSED state the same as CLOSING.

Hey Dmitry,

Should I prep a git pull for you for this or are you OK giving
an Ack for me to put this patch in my git pull for Linus?

Thx.
