I've tested this patch series in the following ways:
* Only applied the blkback patch but not the blkfront patches
* Only applied the blkfront patches but not the blkback patch
* Applied both

All scenarios worked, so

Tested-by: Maximilian Heyne <mheyne@xxxxxxxxx>

Actually I also wanted to test changing feature_persistent and try reconnecting
but I don't know how this is done. If anyone has a pointer here, I could test
that as well.
