[PATCH 6/6] drivers: enable xenwatch multithreading for xen-netback and xen-blkback driver

From: Dongli Zhang
Date: Fri Sep 14 2018 - 03:34:16 EST


This is the 6th patch of a (6-patch) patch set.

As the 'use_mtwatch' for xen-netback and xen-blkback are set to true,
probing any xenbus devices of those two drivers would create the per-domU
xenwatch thread for the domid the new devices belong to, or increment the
reference count of existing thread.

Xenwatch multithreading might be enabled for more xen backend pv drivers in
the future.
