I think you mean xm block-detach and xm-attach?
I tried with and without your patch and in both cases I get
this in my guest:
sh-4.1# mount /dev/xvda /test
[ 385.949749] EXT3-fs: barriers not enabled
[ 385.960173] kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds
[ 385.960418] EXT3-fs (xvda): using internal journal

sh-4.1# [ 411.176887] vbd vbd-51712: 16 Device in use; refusing to close
The commands on the other side (Dom0) were:
[root@tst009 ~]# xm block-list 6
Vdev BE handle state evt-ch ring-ref BE-path
51712 0 0 4 12 770 /local/domain/0/backend/vbd/6/51712
[root@tst009 ~]# xm block-detach 6 51712
Error: Device 51712 (vbd) could not be disconnected.
Usage: xm block-detach <Domain> <DevId> [-f|--force]
Destroy a domain's virtual block device.
[root@tst009 ~]# xm block-detach 6 51712 -f

I get that with the patch and without it:
sh-4.1#
sh-4.1# [ 519.814048] block xvda: device/vbd/51712 was hot-unplugged, 1 stale
handles
sh-4.1# df -h

var_tmp 10M 0 10M 0% /var/tmp
/dev/xvda 20G 173M 19G 1% /test
sh-4.1# umount /test
Any ideas?
