The patchset seems good to me.
Reviewed-by: Dexuan Cui <decui@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

BTW, IMO we need one more patch to remove the queue_work() in
free_channel() -- just make it an ordinary synchronous function call:

vmbus_process_offer() can invoke free_channel() on error path,
and vmbus_process_rescind() can invoke free_channel() too.
We should exclude the possible race.

And now the controlwq and work fields of struct vmbus_channel
are useless now.

Thanks,
