David Woodhouse 5f3d54c00f xen: Fix XenStore initialisation for XS_LOCAL
commit 5f46400f7a6a4fad635d5a79e2aa5a04a30ffea1 upstream.

In commit 3499ba8198ca ("xen: Fix event channel callback via INTX/GSI")
I reworked the triggering of xenbus_probe().

I tried to simplify things by taking out the workqueue based startup
triggered from wake_waiting(); the somewhat poorly named xenbus IRQ
handler.

I missed the fact that in the XS_LOCAL case (Dom0 starting its own
xenstored or xenstore-stubdom, which happens after the kernel is booted
completely), that IRQ-based trigger is still actually needed.

So... put it back, except more cleanly. By just spawning a xenbus_probe
thread which waits on xb_waitq and runs the probe the first time it
gets woken, just as the workqueue-based hack did.

This is actually a nicer approach for *all* the back ends with different
interrupt methods, and we can switch them all over to that without the
complex conditions for when to trigger it. But not in -rc6. This is
the minimal fix for the regression, although it's a step in the right
direction instead of doing a partial revert and actually putting the
workqueue back. It's also simpler than the workqueue.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
