Ming Lei c0b79b0ff5 ublk: add timeout handler
Add timeout handler, so that we can provide forward progress guarantee for
unprivileged ublk, which can't be trusted.

One thing is that sync() calls sync_bdevs(wait) for all block devices after
running sync_bdevs(no_wait), and if one device can't move on, the sync() won't
return any more.

Add timeout for unprivileged ublk to avoid such affect for other users which call
sync() syscall.

Meantime clear UBLK_F_USER_RECOVERY_REISSUE for unprivileged ublk since
that feature may cause IO hang too.

Fixes: 4093cb5a06 ("ublk_drv: add mechanism for supporting unprivileged ublk device")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
