> If some module invokes vdpa_device_unregister (usually in the module
> unload function) when the userspace app (eg. QEMU) which had opened
> the vhost-vdpa character device is still running, vhost_vdpa_remove()
> function will block indefinitely in call to wait_for_completion().
>
> This causes the vdpa_device_unregister caller to hang and with a
> usual side-effect of rmmod command not returning when this call
> is in the module_exit function.
>
> This patch converts the wait_for_completion call to its timeout based
> counterpart (wait_for_completion_timeout) and also adds a warning
> message to alert the user/administrator about this hang situation.
>
> To eventually fix this problem, a mechanism will be required to let
> vhost-vdpa module inform the userspace of this situation and
> userspace will close the descriptor of vhost-vdpa char device.
> This will enable vhost-vdpa to continue with graceful clean-up.
