[ Upstream commit 3499ba8198cad47b731792e5e56b9ec2a78a83a2 ] For a while, event channel notification via the PCI platform device has been broken, because we attempt to communicate with xenstore before we even have notifications working, with the xs_reset_watches() call in xs_init(). We tend to get away with this on Xen versions below 4.0 because we avoid calling xs_reset_watches() anyway, because xenstore might not cope with reading a non-existent key. And newer Xen *does* have the vector callback support, so we rarely fall back to INTX/GSI delivery. To fix it, clean up a bit of the mess of xs_init() and xenbus_probe() startup. Call xs_init() directly from xenbus_init() only in the !XS_HVM case, deferring it to be called from xenbus_probe() in the XS_HVM case instead. Then fix up the invocation of xenbus_probe() to happen either from its device_initcall if the callback is available early enough, or when the callback is finally set up. This means that the hack of calling xenbus_probe() from a workqueue after the first interrupt, or directly from the PCI platform device setup, is no longer needed.

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.
