[PATCH] xen-blkfront: fix kernel panic with blkfront_remove()

[Manjunath Patil]

If a hot-attaching device fails inside domU[ex:negotiate_mq() returns
with ENOMEM] we clear the blkfront_info struct in talk_to_blkback()

When we try to detach the device, blkfront_remove() tries to access
blkfront_info leading to kernel panic.

Typical call stack involving panic -
 #10 page_fault at ffffffff816f25df
     [exception RIP: blkif_free+46]
 #11 blkfront_remove at ffffffffa004de47 [xen_blkfront]
 #12 xenbus_dev_remove at ffffffff813faa4c
 #13 __device_release_driver at ffffffff814769aa

 #15 bus_remove_device at ffffffff814762eb
 #16 device_del at ffffffff81472684
 #17 device_unregister at ffffffff814727e2
 #18 xenbus_dev_changed at ffffffff813fa89f
 #19 frontend_changed at ffffffff813fca19
 #20 xenwatch_thread at ffffffff813f88f9
 #21 kthread at ffffffff810a486b
