> This patch series fixes some shortcomings with the current
> VNIC device command implementation. The first patch fixes
> the initialization of driver completion structures used
> for device commands. Additionally, all waits for device
> commands are bounded with a timeout in the event that the
> device does not respond or becomes inoperable. Finally,
> serialize queries to retain the integrity of device return
> codes.
> 
> Changes in v2:
> 
>  - included header comment for ibmvnic_wait_for_completion
>  - removed open-coded loop in patch 3/4, suggested by Jakub
>  - ibmvnic_wait_for_completion accepts timeout value in milliseconds
>    instead of jiffies
>  - timeout calculations cleaned up and completed before wait loop
>  - included missing mutex_destroy calls, suggested by Jakub
>  - included comment before mutex declaration

Series applied, thanks.
