xenbus: don't look up transaction IDs for ordinary writes
This should really only be done for XS_TRANSACTION_END messages, or
else at least some of the xenstore-* tools don't work anymore.
Fixes: 0beef634b8 ("xenbus: don't BUG() on user mode induced condition")

This commit is required to ensure the proper operation of xenstore-related tools.
Would it be possible to include this commit in the patches queued for the next linux-4.4.y release?
Thank you,
Vefa
