hv_tmp_cpu_nr_to_vp_nr() is not removed, v4.9 doesn't have this API,
and because of this failed to apply the original patch on v4.9. 
That's the reason to use vmbus_cpu_number_to_vp_number() 
instead of hv_tmp_cpu_nr_to_vp_nr().

I will change the explanation in changelog to:
Because v4.9 doesn't have hv_tmp_cpu_nr_to_vp_nr(), 
so original patch from v4.14 fails to apply on v4.9.
To solve this, using vmbus_cpu_number_to_vp_number() 
instead of hv_tmp_cpu_nr_to_vp_nr() in this patch.

Here, I would like maintainer of HyperV to review this change and 
provide their feedback. Tested these patches on Azure Server with
VM of size L16s_v2 and it's working fine.

Sorry, I kept as it is from original patch. I will change this in next version of this patch.

Thanks, I will try to change this in next version.
