I'm assigning this issue to sruffell in the hopes this may be a simple issue to move forward. Please feel free to reassign if this is not the case. Thanks!

Check the return value of the down_interruptible call in order to quiet a
warning.  This semaphore does not protect any host data structures, but only
accesses to the VPMADT032 module.  The worse thing that could happen is that
the internal state of the VPM module is corrupted, and then would only happen
on module loading because otherwise access because that is the only time this
function is called in the context of a user process.  In this case, the module
would need to be reloaded again anyway.
