xenbus_command_reply() did not actually copy the response string and
leaked stack content instead.

By guaranteeing that the argument of XS_TRANSACTION_END is valid we can
assume that the transaction has been closed when we get an XS_ERROR
response from xenstore (Note that we already verify that it's a valid
transaction id).

Commit fd8aa9095a95 ("xen: optimize xenbus driver for multiple
concurrent xenstore accesses") made a subtle change to the semantic of
xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() and xenbus_transaction_end().
Before on an error response to XS_TRANSACTION_END
xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() would not decrement the active
transaction counter. But xenbus_transaction_end() has always counted the
transaction as finished regardless of the response.
The new behavior is that xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() and
xenbus_transaction_end() will always count the transaction as finished
regardless the response code (handled in xs_request_exit()).
But xenbus_dev_frontend tries to end a transaction on closing of the
device if the XS_TRANSACTION_END failed before. Trying to close the
transaction twice corrupts the reference count. So fix this by also
considering a transaction closed if we have sent XS_TRANSACTION_END once
regardless of the return code.

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:
for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done
with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.
The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

After allocation the item is being placed on the list right away.
Consequently it needs to be taken off the list before freeing in the
case xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() failed, as in that case the
callback (xenbus_dev_queue_reply()) is not being called (and if it
was called, it should do both).

Handling of multiple concurrent Xenstore accesses through xenbus driver
either from the kernel or user land is rather lame today: xenbus is
capable to have one access active only at one point of time.
Rewrite xenbus to handle multiple requests concurrently by making use
of the request id of the Xenstore protocol. This requires to:
- Instead of blocking inside xb_read() when trying to read data from
the xenstore ring buffer do so only in the main loop of
xenbus_thread().
- Instead of doing writes to the xenstore ring buffer in the context of
the caller just queue the request and do the write in the dedicated
xenbus thread.
- Instead of just forwarding the request id specified by the caller of
xenbus to xenstore use a xenbus internal unique request id. This will
allow multiple outstanding requests.
- Modify the locking scheme in order to allow multiple requests being
active in parallel.
- Instead of waiting for the reply of a user's xenstore request after
writing the request to the xenstore ring buffer return directly to
the caller and do the waiting in the read path.
Additionally signal handling was optimized by avoiding waking up the
xenbus thread or sending an event to Xenstore in case the addressed
entity is known to be running already.
As a result communication with Xenstore is sped up by a factor of up
to 5: depending on the request type (read or write) and the amount of
data transferred the gain was at least 20% (small reads) and went up to
a factor of 5 for large writes.
In the end some more rough edges of xenbus have been smoothed:
- Handling of memory shortage when reading from xenstore ring buffer in
the xenbus driver was not optimal: it was busy looping and issuing a
warning in each loop.
- In case of xenstore not running in dom0 but in a stubdom we end up
with two xenbus threads running as the initialization of xenbus in
dom0 expecting a local xenstored will be redone later when connecting
to the xenstore domain. Up to now this was no problem as locking
would prevent the two xenbus threads interfering with each other, but
this was just a waste of kernel resources.
- An out of memory situation while writing to or reading from the
xenstore ring buffer no longer will lead to a possible loss of
synchronization with xenstore.
- The user read and write part are now interruptible by signals.

Today a Xenstore watch event is delivered via a callback function
declared as:
void (*callback)(struct xenbus_watch *,
const char **vec, unsigned int len);
As all watch events only ever come with two parameters (path and token)
changing the prototype to:
void (*callback)(struct xenbus_watch *,
const char *path, const char *token);
is the natural thing to do.
Apply this change and adapt all users.

The xenbus driver has an awful mixture of internally and globally
visible headers: some of the internally used only stuff is defined in
the global header include/xen/xenbus.h while some stuff defined in
internal headers is used by other drivers, too.
Clean this up by moving the externally used symbols to
include/xen/xenbus.h and the symbols used internally only to a new
header drivers/xen/xenbus/xenbus.h replacing xenbus_comms.h and
xenbus_probe.h

When the xenbus driver does some special handling for a Xenstore
command any error condition related to the command should be returned
via an error response instead of letting the related write operation
fail. Otherwise the user land handler might take wrong decisions
assuming the connection to Xenstore is broken.
While at it try to return the same error values xenstored would
return for those cases.

When accessing Xenstore in a transaction the user is specifying a
transaction id which he normally obtained from Xenstore when starting
the transaction. Xenstore is validating a transaction id against all
known transaction ids of the connection the request came in. As all
requests of a domain not being the one where Xenstore lives share
one connection, validation of transaction ids of different users of
Xenstore in that domain should be done by the kernel of that domain
being the multiplexer between the Xenstore users in that domain and
Xenstore.
In order to prohibit one Xenstore user "hijacking" a transaction from
another user the xenbus driver has to verify a given transaction id
against all known transaction ids of the user before forwarding it to
Xenstore.

/proc/xen/xenbus does not work correctly. A read blocked waiting for
a xenstore message holds the mutex needed for atomic file position
updates. This blocks any writes on the same file handle, which can
deadlock if the write is needed to unblock the read.
Clear FMODE_ATOMIC_POS when opening this device to always get
character device like sematics.

The Makefile / Kconfig currently controlling compilation here is:
obj-y += xenbus_dev_frontend.o
[...]
obj-$(CONFIG_XEN_BACKEND) += xenbus_dev_backend.o
...with:
drivers/xen/Kconfig:config XEN_BACKEND
drivers/xen/Kconfig: bool "Backend driver support"
...meaning that they currently are not being built as modules by anyone.
Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit.
We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag since all that information
is already contained at the top of the file in the comments.

it can overflow integer range and allocates small size of heap.
After that, memcpy will overflow the allocated heap.

If Xenstore sends back a XS_ERROR for TRANSACTION_END, the driver BUGs
because it cannot find the matching transaction in the list. For
TRANSACTION_START, it leaks memory.
Check the message as returned from xenbus_dev_request_and_reply(), and
clean up for TRANSACTION_START or discard the error for
TRANSACTION_END.

Convert printks to pr_<level> (excludes printk(KERN_DEBUG...)
to be more consistent throughout the xen subsystem.
Add pr_fmt with KBUILD_MODNAME or "xen:" KBUILD_MODNAME
Coalesce formats and add missing word spaces
Add missing newlines
Align arguments and reflow to 80 columns
Remove DRV_NAME from formats as pr_fmt adds the same content
This does change some of the prefixes of these messages
but it also does make them more consistent.
