[PATCH v2 4/5] xen/xenbus: Count pending messages for each watch

From: SeongJae Park
Date: Thu Dec 17 2020 - 08:06:30 EST


From: SeongJae Park <sjpark@xxxxxxxxx>

This commit adds a counter of pending messages for each watch in the
struct. It is used to skip unnecessary pending messages lookup in
'unregister_xenbus_watch()'. It could also be used in 'will_handle'
callback.

This is part of XSA-349

This is upstream commit 3dc86ca6b4c8cfcba9da7996189d1b5a358a94fc
