right?
No, there would still be a connection through to the xenstored. I guess we
do take a few mutexes and so on, so we would need a bit of undo code. So
xenbus_suspend_cancel() is probably the way to go. But full re-connection is
not required.
if no full re-connection, how does everything across different layer
work together?
look at PV driver in HVM domain for example.
xen-platform-pci, xenbus and xen-vbd enable pseudo device,
shared_info/evtchn/xenbus and vbd respectively. when vbd driver found
a broken state when restore, it should reconnect the lower layers
first, since everything is lost.
