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.

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.
