What happens if the userspace(malicous) doesn't give a response forever?

It looks like a DOS. If yes, we need to consider a way to fix that.
How about using wait_event_killable_timeout() instead?

Probably, and then we need choose a suitable timeout and more important, 
need to report the failure to virtio.

Thanks

Thanks,
