[PATCH net-next v2] hyper-v: allow access to vmbus from userspace driver

This is enables the hyper-v driver for DPDK <dev at dpdk.org>.
The hv_uio driver needs to access the shared vmbus monitor
pages.

I would also like to put hv_uio in upstream kernel like other
uio drivers, but need to get API accepted with DPDK first.
