xen/blkfront: avoid NULL blkfront_info dereference on device removal
If a block device is hot-added when we are out of grants,
gnttab_grant_foreign_access fails with -ENOSPC (log message "28
granting access to ring page") in this code path:
talk_to_blkback ->
setup_blkring ->
xenbus_grant_ring ->
gnttab_grant_foreign_access
and the failing path in talk_to_blkback sets the driver_data to NULL:
destroy_blkring:
blkif_free(info, 0);
mutex_lock(&blkfront_mutex);
free_info(info);
mutex_unlock(&blkfront_mutex);
dev_set_drvdata(&dev->dev, NULL);
This results in a NULL pointer BUG when blkfront_remove and blkif_free
try to access the failing device's NULL struct blkfront_info.
