The usage of char_count() is copied from xenbus_dev_changed() which is used to
process pattern 'backend/<type>/...'.

I use char_count() just because I would prefer we always use the same
equation/algorithm to process xenstore path in linux kernel.

I can drop it if it is better to not change char_count() from static to global
function.

556 void xenbus_dev_changed(const char *node, struct xen_bus_type *bus)
557 {
558 int exists, rootlen;
559 struct xenbus_device *dev;
560 char type[XEN_BUS_ID_SIZE];
561 const char *p, *root;
562
563 if (char_count(node, '/') < 2)
564 return;
565
566 exists = xenbus_exists(XBT_NIL, node, "");
567 if (!exists) {
568 xenbus_cleanup_devices(node, &bus->bus);
569 return;
570 }
571
572 /* backend/<type>/... or device/<type>/... */
573 p = strchr(node, '/') + 1;
574 snprintf(type, XEN_BUS_ID_SIZE, "%.*s", (int)strcspn(p, "/"), p);
575 type[XEN_BUS_ID_SIZE-1] = '\0';
