If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Juergen Gross commit 9121b15b5628b38b4695282dc18c553440e0f79b upstream. Connecting to the backend isn't working reliably in xen-fbfront: in case XenbusStateInitWait of the backend has been missed the backend transition to XenbusStateConnected will trigger the connected state only without doing the actions required when the backend has connected.
