[PATCH] vhost-vdpa: log warning message if vhost_vdpa_remove gets blocked
From: Gautam Dawar <gdawar at xilinx.com> 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.
