[PATCH v2] libxl: Fix stubdom PCI passthrough



commit 0fdb48ffe7a1 "libxl: Make sure devices added by pci-attach are
reflected in the config" broken stubdom PCI passthrough when it moved
libxl__create_pci_backend later in the function.  xl pci-attach for a
running PV domain may also have been broken, but that was not verified.

The stubdomain is running (!starting) and PV, so it calls
libxl__wait_for_backend.  With the new placement of
libxl__create_pci_backend, the path does not exist and the call
immediately fails.
libxl: error: libxl_device.c:1388:libxl__wait_for_backend: Backend 
/local/domain/0/backend/pci/43/0 does not exist
libxl: error: libxl_pci.c:1764:device_pci_add_done: Domain 
42:libxl__device_pci_add failed for PCI device 0:2:0.0 (rc -3)
libxl: error: libxl_create.c:1857:domcreate_attach_devices: Domain 42:unable to 
add pci devices

The wait is only relevant when the backend is already present.  num_devs
is already used to determine if the backend needs to be created.  Re-use
num_devs to determine if the backend wait is necessary.  The wait is
necessary to avoid racing with another PCI attachment reconfiguring the
front/back. If we are creating the backend, then we don't have to worry
about a racing reconfigure.
