When booting the xenbus driver will wait for PV devices to have connected to their backends before continuing. The timeout is different between essential and non-essential devices. Non-essential devices are identified by their nodenames directly in the xenbus driver, which requires to update this list in case a new device type being non-essential is added (this was missed for several types in the past). In order to avoid this problem, add a "not_essential" flag to struct xenbus_driver which can be set to "true" by the respective frontend. Set this flag for the frontends currently regarded to be not essential (vkbs and vfb) and use it for testing in the xenbus driver.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
