[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 RESEND] xen-netback: prefer xenbus_scanf() over xenbus_gather()



For single items being collected this should be preferred as being more
typesafe (as the compiler can check format string and to-be-written-to
variable match) and more efficient (requiring one less parameter to be
passed).
