ChangeLog-3.8.3 for example has

commit 32f4d10ed8fd7ef4cebbf02c5326e8bb6aeca9b1
Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>
Date:   Tue Mar 12 15:08:26 2013 -0700

    Revert "xen/blkback: Don't trust the handle from the frontend."
    
    This reverts commit 01c681d4c70d64cb72142a2823f27c4146a02e63 upstream
    (ef56ca64ea733c3b88f0bb74b04da128b1dc35d8 in this tree), as it wasn't
    supposed to have been applied to the stable tree.
