Linux may use a different page size than the size of grant. So make
clear that the order is actually in number of grant.

<title>xenbus_client: Extend interface to support multi-page ring</title>

<id>ccc9d90a9a8b5c4ad7e9708ec41f75ff9e98d61d</id>
<content type='text'>
Originally Xen PV drivers only use single-page ring to pass along
information. This might limit the throughput between frontend and
backend.

The patch extends Xenbus driver to support multi-page ring, which in
general should improve throughput if ring is the bottleneck. Changes to
various frontend / backend to adapt to the new interface are also
included.

Affected Xen drivers:
* blkfront/back
* netfront/back
* pcifront/back
* scsifront/back
* vtpmfront

The interface is documented, as before, in xenbus_client.c.

<content type='text'>
The DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() macro looks a bit weird and causes sparse
errors.

Replace the uses with standard structure definitions instead.  This is
similar to pci and usb device registration.

<title>xenbus: delay xenbus frontend resume if xenstored is not running</title>

<id>2abb274629614bef4044a0b98ada42e977feadfd</id>
<content type='text'>
If the xenbus frontend is located in a domain running xenstored, the device
resume is hanging because it is happening before the process resume. This
patch adds extra logic to the resume code to check if we are the domain
running xenstored and delay the resume if needed.

Signed-off-by: Aurelien Chartier &lt;aurelien.chartier@citrix.com&gt;
[Changes in v2:
- Instead of bypassing the resume, process it in a workqueue]
[Changes in v3:
- Add a struct work in xenbus_device to avoid dynamic allocation
- Several small code fixes]
[Changes in v4:
- Use a dedicated workqueue]
[Changes in v5:
- Move create_workqueue error handling to xenbus_frontend_dev_resume]

<title>Xen: consolidate and simplify struct xenbus_driver instantiation</title>

<id>73db144b58a32fc39733db6a7e1fe582072ad26a</id>
<content type='text'>
The 'name', 'owner', and 'mod_name' members are redundant with the
identically named fields in the 'driver' sub-structure. Rather than
switching each instance to specify these fields explicitly, introduce
a macro to simplify this.

Eliminate further redundancy by allowing the drvname argument to
DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() to be blank (in which case the first entry from
the ID table will be used for .driver.name).

Also eliminate the questionable xenbus_register_{back,front}end()
wrappers - their sole remaining purpose was the checking of the
'owner' field, proper setting of which shouldn't be an issue anymore
when the macro gets used.

v2: Restore DRV_NAME for the driver name in xen-pciback.
