Xen devel - Oct 2007 - xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() checking for transaction end

Jeremy,

what is the motivation for doing

	if ((msg->type == XS_TRANSACTION_END) ||

where linux-2.6.18-xen does

	if ((req_msg.type == XS_TRANSACTION_END) ||

? Is the intention to continue holding the mutex if sending the transaction
end message fails? If so, wouldn''t this also require all users of
xenbus_transaction_end() to do proper error checking *and* re-issuing?

Thanks, Jan
