This line means libxl is still waiting for the backend to detect the 
device configuration. This would confirm that the backend driver is 
probably not loaded.
You can check in the Linux configuration is CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_BACKEND is 
set. If it is:
  * N, then please consider to rebuild it
  * M, then this is a module. You would want to use 'modprobe' to load 
it. That's assuming the module is present on your system.
  * Y, then this should have been loaded. You should check the kernel 
logs to see any errors.
