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.  
I have minor comments on two patches, but also I think it's
a little late in the release cycle for putting this in net.

Could you target net-next and repost ASAP so it still makes
it into 5.5?
Thank you, sorry for the late response.  I will make the requested 
changes ASAP, but I've missed the net-next window.  What should I target 
for v2?
You're right, sticking to "net" makes sense at this point.
