I don't think that's really a valid state for a network frontend. Linux
netback just ignores it.
Must we? I was thinking of making the ->frontend_changed() methods
optional and allowing backends to just provide ->connect() and
->disconnect() methods instead if they wanted to. Because we have three
identical ->frontend_changed() methods now...
Now maybe... Not sure things will look so common when other backends are
converted. I'd prefer to maintain fidelity with Linux xen-netback as it
is generally considered to be the canonical implementation.
