This patch makes xc_linux properly deal with:
1. discovering and creating device nodes if necessary
2. the new form of xen/<dev> device names soon to be used by the kernel
This changes the logic slightly:
- If a device node already exists with the proper name, then it uses it
as-is, assuming it has already been correctly created.
- If the path doesn't exist, or it exists but isn't a device node, and
it has successfully found the major/minor for the device, then
(re)create the device node.
Since this logic is identical for gntdev and evtchn, make a common function
to handle both.
