During hot add, vmbus_device_register() is called from vmbus_onoffer(), on the same workqueue as the subchannel offer message work-queue, so subchannel offer won't be processed until the vmbus_device_register()/... /netvsc_probe() is done. Also, vmbus_device_register() is called with channel_mutex locked, which prevents subchannel processing too. So the "waiting for sub-channel processing" will not success in hot add case. But, in usual module loading, the netvsc_probe() is called from different code path, and doesn't fail. This patch resolves the deadlock during NIC hot-add, and speeds up NIC loading time.
