The changes to split ring allocation from open/close, broke the cleanup of subchannels. This resulted in problems using uio on network devices because the subchannel was left behind when the network device was unbound.
The cause was in the disconnect logic which used list splice to move the subchannel list into a local variable. This won't work because the subchannel list is needed later during the process of the rescind messages (relid2channel).
The fix is to just leave the subchannel list in place which is what the original code did. The list is cleaned up later when the host rescind is processed.
Without the fix, we have a lot of "hang" issues in netvsc when we try to change the NIC's MTU, set the number of channels, etc.

Hi Sasha, Greg, We need to backport this patch to linux-4.20.y. To cleanly cherry-pick this patch (i.e. b5679cebf780 ("vmbus: fix subchannel removal")), we need to backport another patch first:
4d3c5c69191f ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: Remove the useless API vmbus_get_outgoing_channel()")
Unluckily we can't cleanly git-cherry-pick 4d3c5c69191f, as a trivial rebase is required. I attached the rebased version, and let me also paste the patch below for your convenience.
Thanks, -- Dexuan

From: Dexuan Cui decui@microsoft.com Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2018 02:17:56 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Remove the useless API vmbus_get_outgoing_channel()
Commit d86adf482b84 ("scsi: storvsc: Enable multi-queue support") removed the usage of the API in Jan 2017, and the API is not used since then.
netvsc and storvsc have their own algorithms to determine the outgoing channel, so this API is useless.
And the API is potentially unsafe, because it reads primary->num_sc without any lock held. This can be risky considering the RESCIND-OFFER message.
Let's remove the API.
