In contrast with KVP there is no timeout when communicating with
userspace VSS daemon. In case it gets stuck performing freeze/thaw
operation no message will be sent to the host so it will take very
long (around 10 minutes) before backup fails. Introduce 10 second
timeout using schedule_delayed_work().
