Subject: [PATCH 77/97] xen: wait up to 5 minutes for device connetion

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@...hat.com>

commit ae7888012969355a548372e99b066d9e31153b62 upstream.

Increases the device timeout from 10s to 5 minutes, giving the user a
visual indication during that time in case there are problems.  The patch
is a backport of changesets 144 and 150 in the Xenbits tree.
