Currently a single watch on /local/domain/X/backend is registered by each QEMU process running in service domain X (where X is usually 0). The purpose of this watch is to ensure that QEMU is notified when the Xen toolstack creates a new device backend area. Such a backend area is specific to a single frontend area created for a specific guest domain and, since each QEMU process is also created to service a specfic guest domain, it is unnecessary and inefficient to notify all QEMU processes. Only the QEMU process associated with the same guest domain need receive the notification. This patch re-factors the watch registration code such that notifications are targetted appropriately.
