RHBZ: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1121540 When we try to hot-unplugging a busy virtio-rng device, the device can't be removed. And the reading process in guest gets stuck. Those two patches fixed this issue by completing have_data completion and preventing invalid reading. Thanks for the help of Amit.
