Subject: Re: [PATCH 6/8] Drivers: scsi: storvsc: Implement an abort handler


Note that you could increase the timeout and/or implement an
eh_timed_out handler that just returns BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER, but if the
completion takes too long the expectation is that a command will eventually
finish instead of beeing delayed by an unmound amount.

I like this idea; I will implement a eh_timed_out_handler.

Something like this should be sufficient:
