Subject: [PATCH v2 1/6] PCI: hv: Fix a race condition bug in hv_pci_query_relations()

Fix the longstanding race between hv_pci_query_relations() and
survey_child_resources() by flushing the workqueue before we exit from
hv_pci_query_relations().

Fixes: 4daace0d8ce8 ("PCI: hv: Add paravirtual PCI front-end for Microsoft Hyper-V VMs")
