Public bug reported:

This is a request to inclue a patch, submitted to the upstream linux-
hyperv mailing list, in the linux-azure kernels.

Microsoft would like to request this patch in the 16.04 (4.15) and newer
azure kernels.  This patch fixes a prior commit, hence the SRU request:

Fixes: 415719160de3 ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: avoid scheduling in interrupt
context in vmbus_initiate_unload()")

The patch specfically performs the following:

"vmbus_wait_for_unload() looks for a CHANNELMSG_UNLOAD_RESPONSE message
coming from Hyper-V.  But if the message isn't found for some reason,
the panic path gets hung forever.  Add a timeout of 10 seconds to
prevent this."

The requested patch can be found at:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/9/13/196

** Affects: linux-azure (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
