All current usage of vmbus write uses the acquire_lock flag, therefore
having it be optional is unnecessary. This also fixes a sparse warning
since sparse doesn't like when a function has conditional locking.

Change the simple boolean batched_reading into a tri-value.
For future NAPI support in netvsc driver, the callback needs to
occur directly in interrupt handler.
Batched mode is also changed to disable host interrupts immediately
in interrupt routine (to avoid unnecessary host signals), and the
tasklet is rescheduled if more data is detected.

Previously, we were assuming that each IC protocol version was tied to a
specific host version. For example, some Windows 10 preview hosts only
support v3 TimeSync even though driver assumes v4 is supported by all
Windows 10 hosts.
The guest will stop trying to negotiate even though older supported
versions may still be offered by the host.
Make IC version negotiation more robust by going through all versions
that are supported by the guest.

DoS protection conditions were altered in WS2016 and now it's easy to get
-EAGAIN returned from vmbus_post_msg() (e.g. when we try changing MTU on a
netvsc device in a loop). All vmbus_post_msg() callers don't retry the
operation and we usually end up with a non-functional device or crash.
While host's DoS protection conditions are unknown to me my tests show that
it can take up to 10 seconds before the message is sent so doing udelay()
is not an option, we really need to sleep. Almost all vmbus_post_msg()
callers are ready to sleep but there is one special case:
vmbus_initiate_unload() which can be called from interrupt/NMI context and
we can't sleep there. I'm also not sure about the lonely
vmbus_send_tl_connect_request() which has no in-tree users but its external
users are most likely waiting for the host to reply so sleeping there is
also appropriate.

One of the factors that can result in the host concluding that a given
guest in mounting a DOS attack is if the guest generates interrupts
to the host when the host is not expecting it. If these "spurious"
interrupts reach a certain rate, the host can throttle the guest to
minimize the impact. The host computation of the "expected number
of interrupts" is strictly based on the ring transitions. Until
the host logic is fixed, base the guest logic to interrupt solely
on the ring state.

Introduce a mechanism to control how channels will be affinitized. We will
support two policies:
1. HV_BALANCED: All performance critical channels will be dstributed
evenly amongst all the available NUMA nodes. Once the Node is assigned,
we will assign the CPU based on a simple round robin scheme.
2. HV_LOCALIZED: Only the primary channels are distributed across all
NUMA nodes. Sub-channels will be in the same NUMA node as the primary
channel. This is the current behaviour.
The default policy will be the HV_BALANCED as it can minimize the remote
memory access on NUMA machines with applications that span NUMA nodes.

There is a rare race when we remove an entry from the global list
hv_context.percpu_list[cpu] in hv_process_channel_removal() ->
percpu_channel_deq() -> list_del(): at this time, if vmbus_on_event() ->
process_chn_event() -> pcpu_relid2channel() is trying to query the list,
we can get the kernel fault.
Similarly, we also have the issue in the code path: vmbus_process_offer() ->
percpu_channel_enq().
We can resolve the issue by disabling the tasklet when updating the list.
The patch also moves vmbus_release_relid() to a later place where
the channel has been removed from the per-cpu and the global lists.

Kdump keeps biting. Turns out CHANNELMSG_UNLOAD_RESPONSE is always
delivered to the CPU which was used for initial contact or to CPU0
depending on host version. vmbus_wait_for_unload() doesn't account for
the fact that in case we're crashing on some other CPU we won't get the
CHANNELMSG_UNLOAD_RESPONSE message and our wait on the current CPU will
never end.
Do the following:
1) Check for completion_done() in the loop. In case interrupt handler is
still alive we'll get the confirmation we need.
2) Read message pages for all CPUs message page as we're unsure where
CHANNELMSG_UNLOAD_RESPONSE is going to be delivered to. We can race with
still-alive interrupt handler doing the same, add cmpxchg() to
vmbus_signal_eom() to not lose CHANNELMSG_UNLOAD_RESPONSE message.
3) Cleanup message pages on all CPUs. This is required (at least for the
current CPU as we're clearing CPU0 messages now but we may want to bring
up additional CPUs on crash) as new messages won't be delivered till we
consume what's pending. On boot we'll place message pages somewhere else
and we won't be able to read stale messages.

vmbus_initiate_unload()
We have to call vmbus_initiate_unload() on crash to make kdump work but
the crash can also be happening in interrupt (e.g. Sysrq + c results in
such) where we can't schedule or the following will happen:
[ 314.905786] bad: scheduling from the idle thread!
Just skipping the wait (and even adding some random wait here) won't help:
to make host-side magic working we're supposed to receive CHANNELMSG_UNLOAD
(and actually confirm the fact that we received it) but we can't use
interrupt-base path (vmbus_isr()-> vmbus_on_msg_dpc()). Implement a simple
busy wait ignoring all the other messages and use it if we're in an
interrupt context.

When we pick a CPU to use for a new subchannel we try find a non-used one
on the appropriate NUMA node, we keep track of them with the
primary->alloced_cpus_in_node mask. Under normal circumstances we don't run
out of available CPUs but it is possible when we we don't initialize some
cpus in Linux, e.g. when we boot with 'nr_cpus=' limitation.
Avoid the infinite loop in init_vp_index() by checking that we still have
non-used CPUs in the alloced_cpus_in_node mask and resetting it in case
we don't.

In the path vmbus_onoffer_rescind() -> vmbus_device_unregister() ->
device_unregister() -> ... -> __device_release_driver(), we can see for a
device without a driver loaded: dev->driver is NULL, so
dev->bus->remove(dev), namely vmbus_remove(), isn't invoked.
As a result, vmbus_remove() -> hv_process_channel_removal() isn't invoked
and some cleanups(like sending a CHANNELMSG_RELID_RELEASED message to the
host) aren't done.
We can demo the issue this way:
1. rmmod hv_utils;
2. disable the Heartbeat Integration Service in Hyper-V Manager and lsvmbus
shows the device disappears.
3. re-enable the Heartbeat in Hyper-V Manager and modprobe hv_utils, but
lsvmbus shows the device can't appear again.
This is because, the host thinks the VM hasn't released the relid, so can't
re-offer the device to the VM.
We can fix the issue by moving hv_process_channel_removal()
from vmbus_close_internal() to vmbus_device_release(), since the latter is
always invoked on device_unregister(), whether or not the dev has a driver
loaded.

A work item in vmbus_connection.work_queue can sleep, waiting for a new
host message (usually it is some kind of "completion" message). Currently
the new message will be handled in the same workqueue, but since work items
in the workqueue is serialized, we actually have no chance to handle
the new message if the current work item is sleeping -- as as result, the
current work item will hang forever.
K. Y. has posted the below fix to resolve the issue:
Drivers: hv: vmbus: Perform device register in the per-channel work element
Actually we can simplify the fix by directly running non-blocking message
handlers in the dispatch tasklet (inspired by K. Y.).
This patch is the fundamental change. The following 2 patches will simplify
the message offering and rescind-offering handling a lot.
