Subject: [PATCH 4.9 023/130] xen/scsiback: add error handling for xenbus_printf

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Zhouyang Jia <jiazhouyang09@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 7c63ca24c878e0051c91904b72174029320ef4bd ]

When xenbus_printf fails, the lack of error-handling code may
cause unexpected results.

This patch adds error-handling code after calling xenbus_printf.
