[pve-devel] [PATCH/RFC v2 qemu-server 3/3] restore_vma_archive: remove timeout for reading the device map

[Fabian Ebner <f.ebner@proxmox.com>]

If there is no serious problem, it shouldn't be possible to run into
this timeout anyways. It's just (extracting and) reading the header of
the (compressed) vma file. And if there is a serious problem, then the
commands will most likely fail for a different reason, e.g. unable to open,
corrupt vma, etc.

New in v2

Hope I'm not missing anything important.
