We just reported to xenbus that we can't close yet, because we're still
in use. So we shouldn't then immediately tell xenbus that we are
closing. If we do, then we risk bypassing the chance to complain again,
if we're told to close again, and we're still in use. The reason this
code was here was to implement a deferred close. We can still support
this feature by adding a member to our private data, and setting that
instead. Besides being able to complain each time, this patch fixes
a problem when running on hosts with legacy tools that may interpret
the lack of a complaint or state=Closing incorrectly, and then yank
the device out from under the guest.
