Sure. Will do.

I think this is because we want to free the irq for the late init case, 
otherwise the init-dom0less will fail. For the xenstore PFN allocated 
case, the connection is already set to CONNECTED when we execute 
init-dom0less. But I agree with you, would below diff makes more sense 
to you?
