Paul Durrant d75e7f63b7 xen-blkback: fix compatibility bug with single page rings ... Prior to commit 4a8c31a1c6 ("xen/blkback: rework connect_ring() to avoid inconsistent xenstore 'ring-page-order' set by malicious blkfront"), the behaviour of xen-blkback when connecting to a frontend was: - read 'ring-page-order' - if not present then expect a single page ring specified by 'ring-ref' - else expect a ring specified by 'ring-refX' where X is between 0 and 1 << ring-page-order This was correct behaviour, but was broken by the afforementioned commit to become: - read 'ring-page-order' - if not present then expect a single page ring (i.e. ring-page-order = 0) - expect a ring specified by 'ring-refX' where X is between 0 and 1 << ring-page-order - if that didn't work then see if there's a single page ring specified by 'ring-ref' This incorrect behaviour works most of the time but fails when a frontend that sets 'ring-page-order' is unloaded and replaced by one that does not because, instead of reading 'ring-ref', xen-blkback will read the stale 'ring-ref0' left around by the previous frontend will try to map the wrong grant reference. This patch restores the original behaviour.
