    xen-block: treat XenbusStateUnknown the same as XenbusStateClosed
    
    When a frontend gracefully disconnects from an offline backend, it will
    set its own state to XenbusStateClosed. The code in xen-block.c correctly
    deals with this and sets the backend into XenbusStateClosed. Unfortunately
    it is possible for toolstack to actually delete the frontend area
    before the state key has been read, leading to an apparent frontend state
    of XenbusStateUnknown. This prevents the backend state from transitioning
    to XenbusStateClosed and hence leaves it limbo.
    
    This patch simply treats a frontend state of XenbusStateUnknown the same
    as XenbusStateClosed, which will unblock the backend in these circumstances.
