Re: [PATCH v3 6/9] xen/blkfront: negotiate the number of hw queues/rings with backend

I would write this in present instead of past, I think it's clearer:

The negotiated number _is_ the smaller...

The transaction is not started inside of the helper, so I would prefer
it to be ended in the same function where it is started. This should
just return the error and the caller should end the transaction.

kmalloc seems better here, since you are memseting it below in order to
reuse it.

        ^ pr_debug                           ^ supports

And I would also print the number of queues that are going to be used.

Shouldn't there be a default value for xen_blkif_max_queues if the user
hasn't set the parameter on the command line?
