Mike Christie 2da22da573 nbd: fix zero cmd timeout handling v2
This fixes a regression added in 4.9 with commit:

    nbd: allow block mq to deal with timeouts

where before the patch userspace would set the timeout to 0 to disable
it. With the above patch, a zero timeout tells the block layer to use
the default value of 30 seconds. For setups where commands can take a
long time or experience transient issues like network disruptions this
then results in IO errors being sent to the application.

To fix this, the patch still uses the common block layer timeout
framework, but if zero is set, nbd just logs a message and then resets
the timer when it expires.

README

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.
