Didn't handle the frontend block device being mounted. Updated patch here. 8<--------------------------------- xen-blkfront: handle backend CLOSED without CLOSING Backend drivers shouldn't transistion to CLOSED unless the frontend is CLOSED. If a backend does transition to CLOSED too soon then the frontend may not see the CLOSING state and will not properly shutdown. So, treat an unexpected backend CLOSED state the same as CLOSING. If the backend is CLOSED then the frontend can't talk to it so go to CLOSED immediately without waiting for the block device to be closed or unmounted.
