RE: [Xen-devel] XenDomainInfo.py: Can hang in _releaseDevices.
Attached patch fixes the problem I described a while back where some
"stuff" gets left in xenstore when a domain is destroyed, and also fixes
the below described hang case by trying 100 times before it gives up.
This may not be the right way to fix this, so I'm happy to fix/update as
necessary. [This is also my first "python patch" where code is added, so
excuse me if there's something wrong there...]
