xen/scsiback: use lateeoi irq binding
commit 86991b6 upstream. In order to reduce the chance for the system becoming unresponsive due to event storms triggered by a misbehaving scsifront use the lateeoi irq binding for scsiback and unmask the event channel only just before leaving the event handling function. In case of a ring protocol error don't issue an EOI in order to avoid the possibility to use that for producing an event storm. This at once will result in no further call of scsiback_irq_fn(), so the ring_error struct member can be dropped and scsiback_do_cmd_fn() can signal the protocol error via a negative return value. This is part of XSA-332.
