xen-netback: add reference from xenvif to backend_info to facilitate coredump analysis
During coredump analysis, it is not easy to obtain the address of backend_info in xen-netback. So far there are two ways to obtain backend_info: 1. Do what xenbus_device_find() does for vmcore to find the xenbus_device and then derive it from dev_get_drvdata(). 2. Extract backend_info from callstack of xenwatch (e.g., netback_remove() or frontend_changed()). This patch adds a reference from xenvif to backend_info so that it would be much more easier to obtain backend_info during coredump analysis.
