[PATCH 0/2] xen/blkback: support delete-on-close block devices



These two patches allow userspace to provide an expected diskseq of a
block device and discover when blkback has opened the device.  Together,
these features allow using blkback with delete-on-close block devices,
such as loop devices with autoclear set.
