Date: Mon, 22 Feb 2021 13:35:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210222121028.593541776@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210222121027.174911182@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Julien Grall <jgrall@amazon.com>

commit c4295ab0b485b8bc50d2264bcae2acd06f25caaf upstream.

After Commit 3499ba8198cad ("xen: Fix event channel callback via
INTX/GSI"), xenbus_probe() will be called too early on Arm. This will
recent to a guest hang during boot.

If the hang wasn't there, we would have ended up to call
xenbus_probe() twice (the second time is in xenbus_probe_initcall()).

We don't need to initialize xenbus_probe() early for Arm guest.
Therefore, the call in xen_guest_init() is now removed.

After this change, there is no more external caller for xenbus_probe().
So the function is turned to a static one. Interestingly there were two
prototypes for it.
