But when QEMU is setting "Closing" to its state, it triggers an event (xenstore watch) that re-execute xen_device_backend_changed() and set the backend state to "Closed". QEMU should wait for the frontend to set "Closed" before doing the same. Before setting "Closed" to the backend_state, we are also going to check if there is a frontend. If that the case, when the backend state is set to "Closing" the frontend should react and sets its state to "Closing" then "Closed". The backend should wait for that to happen.
