Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix a bug in the channel callback dispatch code
commit affb1aff300ddee54df307812b38f166e8a865ef upstream. Starting with Win8, we have implemented several optimizations to improve the scalability and performance of the VMBUS transport between the Host and the Guest. Some of the non-performance critical services cannot leverage these optimization since they only read and process one message at a time. Make adjustments to the callback dispatch code to account for the way non-performance critical drivers handle reading of the channel. Signed-off-by: K. Y.
