  From: Demi Marie Obenour <demiobenour@gmail.com>

This allows specifying a disk sequence number in XenStore.  If it does
not match the disk sequence number of the underlying device, the device
will not be exported and a warning will be logged.  Userspace can use
this to eliminate race conditions due to major/minor number reuse.
Older kernels will ignore this, so it is safe for userspace to set it
unconditionally.

This also makes physical-device parsing stricter.  I do not believe this
will break any extant userspace tools.
