[PATCH] xen: drop writing error messages to xenstore

[Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>]

xenbus_va_dev_error() will try to write error messages to Xenstore
under the error/<dev-name>/error node (with <dev-name> something like
"device/vbd/51872"). This will fail normally and another message
about this failure is added to dmesg.

I believe this is a remnant from very ancient times, as it was added
in the first pvops rush of commits in 2007.

So remove the additional message when writing to Xenstore failed as
a minimum step.

I am considering removing the Xenstore write altogether, but I'm
not sure it isn't needed e.g. by xend based installations. So please
speak up in case you know why this write is there.
