Subject: [PATCH] xenbus: don't BUG() on user mode induced condition
Date: Thu, 07 Jul 2016 01:23:57 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <577E1FAD02000078000FBD88@prv-mh.provo.novell.com> (raw)

Inability to locate a user mode specified transaction ID should not
lead to a kernel crash. For other than XS_TRANSACTION_START also
don't issue anything to xenbus if the specified ID doesn't match that
of any active transaction.
