I am assuming you are talking about returning -EBUSY from
the vfio_ap_mdev_verify_no_sharing() function instead of
-EADDRINUSE. I'm going to change this back per your comments
below.

The patch order was changed due to your review comments in
in Message ID <20201126165431.6ef1457a.pasic@linux.ibm.com>,
patch 07/17 in the v12 series. In order to ensure that only queues
bound to the vfio_ap driver are given to the guest, I'm going to
create a patch that will preceded this one which introduces the
filtering code currently introduced in the patch 12/17, the hot
plug patch.

Will do.

It can happen during normal operation, but we had this discussion
in the previous review. Both Connie and I felt it should be a warning
since this message is the only way for a user to identify the queues
in use. A message of lower severity may not get logged depriving the
user from easily determining why an adapter or domain could not
be assigned.

Back in v8 of the series, Christian suggested the occurrences
of -EADDRINUSE should be replaced by the more appropriate
-EBUSY (Message ID <d7954c15-b14f-d6e5-0193-aadca61883a8@de.ibm.com>),
so I changed it here. It does get bubbled up to userspace, so you make a
valid point. I will
change it back. I will, however, set the value returned from the
__verify_card_reservations() function in ap_bus.c to -EBUSY as
suggested by Christian.

Yes it is, the comment describing the -EBUSY return code will
be moved to patch 11/15 where it is the try_lock is introduced.
