I don't think we need another loop, just a check if we found a domain or
not. E.g.:
unsigned int next_rx = console_rx + 1;
/* Skip switching serial input to non existing domains */
while ( next_rx < max_init_domid + 1 )
{
struct domain *d = rcu_lock_domain_by_id(next_rx - 1);
if ( d )
{
rcu_unlock_domain(d);
console_rx = next_rx;
printk("*** Serial input to DOM%d", console_rx - 1);
break;
}
next_rx++;
}
/* no domain found */
console_rx = 0;
printk("*** Serial input to Xen");
