Since diskseq is declared as u64 in gendisk, better use the same type
here too?

ENODEV or ENOENT might be more accurate IMO.

I prefer %#llx, and likely pr_err like above. Also I think it's now
preferred to not split printed lines, so that `grep "has incorrect
sequence number" ...` can find the instance.

const, and I think there's no need to init to NULL.

Won't it be simpler to use xenbus_scanf() with %llx formatter?
Also, we might want to fetch "physical-device" and "diskseq" inside
the same xenstore transaction.
Also, you tie this logic to the "physical-device" watch, which
strictly implies that the "diskseq" node must be written to xenstore
before the "physical-device" node. This seems fragile, but I don't
see much better optiono since the "diskseq" is optional.
The node and its behaviour should be documented in blkif.h.

You are leaking diskseq_str here, and in all the error cases between
here and up to the call to xen_vbd_create().
It might be better to simnply free diskseq_str once you are done with
the processing, and have set diskseq.
Otherwise see my suggestion of using xenbus_scanf().
Thanks, Roger.
