xen-blkfront: Apply 'feature_persistent' parameter when connect
In some use cases[1], the backend is created while the frontend doesn't
support the persistent grants feature, but later the frontend can be
changed to support the feature and reconnect. In the past, 'blkback'
enabled the persistent grants feature since it unconditionally checked
if frontend supports the persistent grants feature for every connect
('connect_ring()') and decided whether it should use persistent grans or
not.
However, commit
e06da285af58 ("xen-blkback: add a parameter for
disabling of persistent grants") has mistakenly changed the behavior.
It made the frontend feature support check to not be repeated once it
shown the 'feature_persistent' as 'false', or the frontend doesn't
support persistent grants.
Similar behavioral change has made on 'blkfront' by commit
e39c1c92cd41
("xen-blkfront: add a parameter for disabling of persistent grants").
This commit changes the behavior of the parameter to make effect for
every connect, so that the previous behavior of 'blkfront' can be
restored.
