xen/blkback: don't use xen_blkif_get() in xen-blkback kthread
commit a24fa22ce22ae302b3bf8f7008896d52d5d57b8d upstream. There is no need to use xen_blkif_get()/xen_blkif_put() in the kthread of xen-blkback. Thread stopping is synchronous and using the blkif reference counting in the kthread will avoid to ever let the reference count drop to zero at the end of an I/O running concurrent to disconnecting and multiple rings. Setting ring->xenblkd to NULL after stopping the kthread isn't needed as the kthread does this already.
