[bionic:linux-azure-4.15, focal:linux-azure][PATCH 1/1] UBUNTU: SAUCE: Drivers: hv: vmbus: Add timeout to vmbus_wait_for_unload

From: Michael Kelley <mikelley at microsoft.com>

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1895527

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.
