Controlling timeout from device is a good idea, e.g. hardware devices
would benefit from a shorter timeout, hypervisor devices from a longer
timeout or no timeout.

Spec says nothing about this, so driver can't assume this either.

ATM no amount of hardening can prevent a malicious hypervisor from
blocking the guest. Recovering when a hardware device is broken would be
nice but I think if we do bother then we should try harder to recover,
such as by driving device reset.
Also, does your patch break surprise removal? There's no callback
in this case ATM.
