Use sysfs to allow supporting sub-channels. The userspace application
makes request to host to create sub-channels and the UIO kernel
driver populates the sysfs per-channel directory with a binary
attribute file that can be used to read/write ring.

When investigating performance, it is useful to be able to look at
the number of host and guest events per-channel. This is equivalent
to per-device interrupt statistics.

This extends existing vmbus related sysfs structure to provide per-channel
state information. This is useful when diagnosing issues with multiple
queues in networking and storage.
The existing sysfs only displayed information about the primary
channel. The one place it reported multiple channels was the
channel_vp_mapping file which violated the sysfs convention
of one value per file.

Add vendor and device attributes to VMBUS devices. These will be used
by Hyper-V tools as well user-level RDMA libraries that will use the
vendor/device tuple to discover the RDMA device.
