When a virtio pci device undergo surprise removal (aka async removal in PCIe spec), mark the device as broken so that any upper layer drivers can abort any outstanding operation. When a virtio net pci device undergo surprise removal which is used by a NetworkManager, a below call trace was observed. kernel:watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 26s! [kworker/1:1:27059] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 52s! [kworker/1:1:27059] CPU: 1 PID: 27059 Comm: kworker/1:1 Tainted: G S W I L 5.13.0-hotplug+ #8 Hardware name: Dell Inc.
