If we test "rmmod pci-hyperv", I suspect the warning will be printed:
hv_pci_remove() -> hv_pci_bus_exit() -> hv_pci_start_relations_work():

if (hbus->state == hv_pcibus_removing) {
dev_info(&hbus->hdev->device,
"PCI VMBus BUS_RELATIONS: ignored\n");
return -ENOENT;
}

Ideally we'd like to avoid the warning in the driver unloading case.

BTW, can you please add "hbus->wq = NULL;" after the line
"destroy_workqueue(hbus->wq);"? In case some other function could
still try to use hbus->wq by accident in the future, the error would be
easier to be understood.
