xen/blkfront: Fix crash if backend doesn't follow the right states. We have split the setting up of all the resources in two steps: 1) talk_to_blkback - which figures out the num_ring_pages (from the default value of zero), sets up shadow and so 2) blkfront_connect - does the real part of filling out the internal structures. The problem is if we bypass the 1) step and go straight to 2) and call blkfront_setup_indirect where we use the macro BLK_RING_SIZE - which returns an negative value (because sz is zero - since num_ring_pages is zero - since it has never been set). We can fix this by making sure that we always have called talk_to_blkback before going to blkfront_connect. Or we could set in blkfront_probe info->nr_ring_pages = 1 to have a default value. But that looks odd - as we haven't actually negotiated any ring size. This patch changes XenbusStateConnected state to detect if we haven't done the initial handshake - and if so continue on as if were in XenbusStateInitWait state. We also roll the error recovery (freeing the structure) into talk_to_blkback error path - which is safe since that function is only called from blkback_changed.
