[Xen-devel] [PATCH][PVFB][TOOLS] Terminate backend when frontend vanishes early

[Markus Armbruster <armbru@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Ensure the backend terminates when the frontend vanishes before the
connection is established.  This happens when the guest doesn't have
the devices.

Note:

* Callers of xenfb_wait_for_state() already do the right thing when it
  returns XenbusStateUnknown.

* xenfb_read_state() can't return negative values.  The useless test
  is a leftover from an older version.
