[PATCH] [repost] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Offload the handling of channels to two workqueues

vmbus_process_offer() mustn't call channel->sc_creation_callback()
directly for sub-channels, because sc_creation_callback() ->
vmbus_open() may never get the host's response to the
OPEN_CHANNEL message (the host may rescind a channel at any time,
e.g. in the case of hot removing a NIC), and vmbus_onoffer_rescind()
may not wake up the vmbus_open() as it's blocked due to a non-zero
vmbus_connection.offer_in_progress, and finally we have a deadlock.
The above is also true for primary channels, if the related device
drivers use sync probing mode by default.
And, usually the handling of primary channels and sub-channels can
depend on each other, so we should offload them to different
workqueues to avoid possible deadlock, e.g. in sync-probing mode,
NIC1's netvsc_subchan_work() can race with NIC2's netvsc_probe() ->
rtnl_lock(), and causes deadlock: the former gets the rtnl_lock
and waits for all the sub-channels to appear, but the latter
can't get the rtnl_lock and this blocks the handling of sub-channels.
The patch can fix the multiple-NIC deadlock described above for
v3.x kernels (e.g. RHEL 7.x) which don't support async-probing
of devices, and v4.4, v4.9, v4.14 and v4.18 which support async-probing
but don't enable async-probing for Hyper-V drivers (yet).
The patch can also fix the hang issue in sub-channel's handling described
above for all versions of kernels, including v4.19 and v4.20-rc4.
So, actually the patch should be applied to all the existing kernels,
not only the kernels that have 8195b1396ec8.
Fixes: 8195b1396ec8 ("hv_netvsc: fix deadlock on hotplug")

There is no change in this repost. I just rebased this patch to today's
char-misc's char-misc-next branch. Previously KY posted the patch with his
Signed-off-by (which is kept in this repost), but there was a conflict issue.
Note: the patch can't be cleanly applied to char-misc's char-misc-linus branch --
to do that, we need to cherry-pick the supporting patch first:
