blkfront: fixes for 'xm block-detach ... --force'
Prevent prematurely freeing 'struct blkfront_info' instances (when the xenbus data structures are gone, but the Linux ones are still needed). Prevent adding a disk with the same (major, minor) [and hence the same name and sysfs entries, which leads to oopses] when the previous instance wasn't fully de-allocated yet. This still doesn't address all issues resulting from forced detach: I/O submitted after the detach still blocks forever, likely preventing subsequent un-mounting from completing. It's not clear to me (not knowing much about the block layer) how this can be avoided.
