Correct two issues in the Xen pvscsi backend.

Changes in V2:
- Patch 2: scsiback_del_translation_entry() returns error code instead of 1
    (Boris Ostrovsky)

When adding a new frontend to xen-scsiback don't decrement the number
of active frontends in case of no error. Doing so results in a failure
when trying to remove the xen-pvscsi nexus even if no domain is using
it.

When adding more than one LUN to a frontend a warning for a failed
assignment is issued in dom0 for each already existing LUN. Avoid this
warning by checking for a LUN already existing when existence is
allowed (scsiback_do_add_lun() called with try == 1).

As the LUN existence check is needed now for a third time, factor it
out into a function. This in turn leads to a more or less complete
rewrite of scsiback_del_translation_entry() which will now return a
proper error code in case of failure.

Avoiding warnings doesn't seem like a viable candidate for stable.  Is
there more to this patch than the description suggests?
