[PATCH 1/6] xen-netfront: handle backend CLOSED without CLOSING

From: David Vrabel <hidden>
Date: 2012-09-21 16:05:25
Also in: lkml, xen-devel
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest, xen hypervisor interface · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, Juergen Gross, Stefano Stabellini

From: David Vrabel <redacted>

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.
