3.16.7-ckt1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Amos Kong <[email protected]> commit 3856e548372513665670ca5db60d9a74b970fe0d upstream. When we try to hot-remove a busy virtio-rng device from QEMU monitor, the device can't be hot-removed. Because virtio-rng driver hangs at wait_for_completion_killable(). This patch exits the waiting by completing have_data completion before unregistering, resets data_avail to avoid the hwrng core use wrong buffer bytes.
