Better check for errors, otherwise the rest will hang without useful
feedback.

This looks fragile? if version is "2.1" it will accept it apparently? I
guess better check whether strtoul did read a number, and in that case
break the loop anyway, successfully if the number is 1 and with failure
otherwise.

This looks odd: when number 1 is detected this breaks out successfully,
while the error message otherwise says that it's version 1 which is not
supported? Is the message supposed to be "version greater than 1 not
supported"?

In case of early errors, this will try to free uninitialized evtchn,
ring_ref, etc.
