Take into consideration the xmit_more flag in skb to decide if we should
notify the host as we place packets in VMBUS.

The VMBUS API that would give us this control is already in Greg's tree, in this
patch-set, that API is exported so it can be used in the netvsc driver.

Also included here is a siganlling related fix in the vmbus driver that is
exposed by the netvsc driver. I would like to thank
Jason Wang <jasowang at redhat.com> for pointing out this issue.

This version of the patch-set, adds an additional patch to fix the
signalling issue.

  Drivers: hv: vmbus: Export the vmbus_sendpacket_pagebuffer_ctl()
  Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix a bug in the signalling logic with kick_q
