The current code has a global handle for supporting signaling of the host
from guest. Make this a per-channel attribute as on some versions of the
host we can signal on per-channel handle.

In preparation for supporting a per-connection signaling mechanism,
change the signature of vmbus_set_event(). This change is also
needed to implement other aspects of the signaling optimization.

The host has already implemented the "read" side optimizations.
Leverage that to optimize "write" side signaling.

Implement functions that will support read-side signaling optimization.
By having the reader indicate the start of the "read" operation and the
"end" of the read operation we can more efficiently handle the signaling
protocol: while the read is in progress, there is no need for the "writer"
to signal the "reader" as new items are put on the read queue.

The current guest ID string in use in vmbus driver does not conform
to the MSFT guidelines on guest ID. MSFT currently does not specify
Linux specific guidelines. MSFT however has plans to publish Linux
specific guidelines. This implementation conforms to the yet unpublished
Linux specific guidelines for guest ID. This implementation also broadly
conforms to the current guidelines as well.

This function returns negative error codes, but because the type is u16
they get truncated into positive numbers. It doesn't look like the

The current code arbirarily limited the number of CPUs the guest could have.
Change that so that we can support the maximum number of CPUs the guest can
support. While we use NR_CPUS to size the per-cpu state all we are allocating
based on NR_CPUS are the pointers to per-cpu state that will be allocatted in
the context of the initializing CPU. This patch triggers a checkpatch warning
for the usage of NR_CPU and since all we are allocating a couple of pointers
per CPU, it should be ok.

After many years wandering the desert, it is finally time for the
Microsoft HyperV code to move out of the staging directory. Or at least
the core hyperv bus code, and the utility driver, the rest still have
some review to get through by the various subsystem maintainers.
