[PATCH v3 0/2] virtio-rng: fix hotunplug

When we try to hot-unplugging a busy virtio-rng device, the device
can't be removed. And the reading process in guest gets stuck.

Those two patches fixed this issue by completing have_data completion
and preventing invalid reading.

Thanks for the help of Amit.
