In any case, the issue is not calling the hotplug script, responsible
for configuring newly created vif interface. Not kernel waiting for it.
So, I think both commits should still be reverted.
Did you also test the ability for a domU to have the netfront driver
reloaded?  (That should be roughly equivalent to my original test scenario
comprising the iPXE netfront driver used to boot a kernel that then loads
the Linux netfront driver.)
Yes, with both commits reverted, it just works. Without the need to do
anything at the backend side.
