3.10.18 included 279f438e36c0 (xen-netback: Don't destroy the netdev
until the vif is shut down) but this has a regression that was fixed by
dc62ccaccfb1 (xen-netback: transition to CLOSED when removing a VIF)

dc62ccaccfb1 depends on ea732dff5cfa (xen-netback: Handle backend state
transitions in a more robust way) which is also a bug fix for certain
Windows frontend drivers and is thus also a stable candidate.

Dave can you ensure these two commits are tagged for the next 3.10.y
stable release?

Thanks.

David

Ian already asked me to do this, and the commits are necessary for
3.11 -stable as well.

They've been queued up.

Sorry, bit of a race condition after Dave V and I spoke. Seems like I
won by 3s ;-)
