When starting the xenwatch thread a theoretical deadlock situation is
possible:

xs_init() contains:

    task = kthread_run(xenwatch_thread, NULL, "xenwatch");
    if (IS_ERR(task))
        return PTR_ERR(task);
    xenwatch_pid = task->pid;

And xenwatch_thread() does:

    mutex_lock(&xenwatch_mutex);
    ...
    event->handle->callback();
    ...
    mutex_unlock(&xenwatch_mutex);

The callback could call unregister_xenbus_watch() which does:

    ...
    if (current->pid != xenwatch_pid)
        mutex_lock(&xenwatch_mutex);
    ...

In case a watch is firing before xenwatch_pid could be set and the
callback of that watch unregisters a watch, then a self-deadlock would
occur.

Avoid this by setting xenwatch_pid in xenwatch_thread().
