[PATCH v3] Drivers: hv: vmbus: prevent cpu offlining on newer hypervisors

[Vitaly Kuznetsov]

When an SMP Hyper-V guest is running on top of 2012R2 Server and secondary
cpus are sent offline (with echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$cpu/online)
the system freeze is observed. This happens due to the fact that on newer
hypervisors (Win8, WS2012R2, ...) vmbus channel handlers are distributed
across all cpus (see init_vp_index() function in drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c)
and on cpu offlining nobody reassigns them to CPU0. Prevent cpu offlining
when vmbus is loaded until the issue is fixed host-side.

This patch also disables hibernation but it is OK as it is also broken (MCE
error is hit on resume). Suspend still works.

Tested with WS2008R2 and WS2012R2.

Changes since v2:
- repair the build when vmbus is builded as a module [Greg KH] by saving
  current cpu_disable pointer to previous_cpu_disable and restoring it on
  unload;
- return -ENOSYS (same as native_cpu_disable when !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU) instead
  of -1 in hyperv_cpu_disable().

Changes since v1:
- introduce hv_cpu_hotplug_quirk() function to not spread #ifdefs [Greg KH];
- add pr_notice() message "hv_vmbus: CPU offlining is not supported by
  hypervisor".
