Minimize failures in this function by pre-allocating the buffer
for posting messages. The hypercall for posting the message can fail
for a number of reasons:
1. Transient resource related issues
2. Buffer alignment
3. Buffer cannot span a page boundry
We address issues 2 and 3 by preallocating a per-cpu page for the buffer.
Transient resource related failures are handled by retrying by the callers
of this function.
This patch is based on the investigation
done by Dexuan Cui <decui@microsoft.com>.
I would like to thank Sitsofe Wheeler <sitsofe@yahoo.com>
for reporting the issue and helping in debuggging.

Currently the mapping of the relID to channel is done under the protection of a
single spin lock. Starting with ws2012, each channel is bound to a specific VCPU
in the guest. Use this binding to eliminate the spin lock by setting up
per-cpu state for mapping relId to the channel.

Implement the file copy service for Linux guests on Hyper-V. This permits the
host to copy a file (over VMBUS) into the guest. This facility is part of
"guest integration services" supported on the Windows platform.
Here is a link that provides additional details on this functionality:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn464282.aspx
In V1 version of the patch I have addressed comments from
Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> and Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>
In V2 version of this patch I did some minor cleanup (making some globals
static). In V4 version of the patch I have addressed all of Olaf's
most recent set of comments/concerns.
In V5 version of the patch I had addressed Greg's most recent comments.
I would like to thank Greg for suggesting that I use misc device; it has
significantly simplified the code.
In V6 version of the patch I have cleaned up error message based on Olaf's
comments. I have also rebased the patch based on the current tip.
In this version of the patch, I have addressed the latest comments from Greg.

The current channel code is using scatterlist abstraction to pass data to the
ringbuffer API on the send path. This causes unnecessary translations
between virtual and physical addresses. Fix this.

monitor_pages was a void pointer, containing an unknown number of arrays that
we just "knew" were a child and parent array of a specific size. Instead of
that implicit knowledge, let's make them a real pointer, allowing us to have
type safety, and a semblance of sane addressing schemes.

We currently allocate synic structures in hv_sync_init(), but there's no way for
the driver to know about the allocation failure and it may continue to use the
uninitialized pointers. Solve this by introducing helpers for allocating and
freeing and doing the allocation before the on_each_cpu() call in
vmbus_bus_init().

On win8 (ws2012), incoming vmbus interrupt load can be spread across all
available VCPUs in the guest. On a per-channel basis, the interrupts can
be bound to specific CPUs. The Linux notion of cpu ID may be different
from that of the hypervisor's. Setup a mapping structure.

Implement functions that will support read-side signaling optimization.
By having the reader indicate the start of the "read" operation and the
"end" of the read operation we can more efficiently handle the signaling
protocol: while the read is in progress, there is no need for the "writer"
to signal the "reader" as new items are put on the read queue.

The current code arbirarily limited the number of CPUs the guest could have.
Change that so that we can support the maximum number of CPUs the guest can
support. While we use NR_CPUS to size the per-cpu state all we are allocating
based on NR_CPUS are the pointers to per-cpu state that will be allocatted in
the context of the initializing CPU. This patch triggers a checkpatch warning
for the usage of NR_CPU and since all we are allocating a couple of pointers
per CPU, it should be ok.
