This is indeed a debug statement. :-) 
I was not so sure if the error handling is absolutely correct there.
I think I can remove this WARN_ON_ONCE() since almost all of the possible
error paths have a pr_err(). We can make an extra patch to fix any bug in
the existing error handling code. BTW, it should be pretty unlikely to reach
the "err_deq_chan label" in practice.

I agree. We should restructure vmbus_onoffer_rescind(), but I think we can
do it in a separate patch. Here in this patch I'm focused on the minimal
required change for hibernation.

Yes.

Ok. I'll add a commnt for this in v4.
