Usually it is barely possible to shoot two birds using a stone.

Given the "forever", I am inclined to not running faster, hehe, though
another cobble is to add another line in the loop checking if mvdev is
unregistered, and for example make mvdev->cvq unready before destroying
workqueue.

static void mlx5_vdpa_dev_del(struct vdpa_mgmt_dev *v_mdev, struct vdpa_device *dev)
{
	struct mlx5_vdpa_mgmtdev *mgtdev = container_of(v_mdev, struct mlx5_vdpa_mgmtdev, mgtdev);
	struct mlx5_vdpa_dev *mvdev = to_mvdev(dev);
	struct mlx5_vdpa_net *ndev = to_mlx5_vdpa_ndev(mvdev);

	mlx5_notifier_unregister(mvdev->mdev, &ndev->nb);
	destroy_workqueue(mvdev->wq);
	_vdpa_unregister_device(dev);
	mgtdev->ndev = NULL;
}
