xen/blkfront: allow xenbus state transition to Closing->Closed when not Connected
This situation can occur when attempting to attach a block device whose backend is an empty physical CD-ROM driver. The backend in this case will go directly from the Initialising state to Closing->Closed. Previously this would result in a NULL pointer deref on info->gd (xenbus_dev_fatal does not return as a1a15ac5 seems to expect) Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com> Acked-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
