[PATCH 1/1] mshv: Add conditional VMBus dependency

[Michael Kelley]

From: Michael Kelley <mhklinux@xxxxxxxxxxx>

When the VMBus driver is not part of the kernel (CONFIG_HYPERV_VMBUS=n),
the MSHV root driver fails to link:

ERROR: modpost: "hv_vmbus_exists" [drivers/hv/mshv_root.ko] undefined!

Fix this while meeting these requirements:
* It must be possible to include the MSHV root driver without the
  VMBus driver. In such case, the MSHV root driver can be built-in
  to the kernel image, or it can be built as a separate module.
* If both the MSHV root driver and the VMBus driver are present, the
  MSHV root driver and VMBus driver can both be built-in, or they can
  both be separate modules. Or the MSHV root driver can be a module
  while the VMBus driver can be built-in, but the reverse is
  disallowed. Regardless of the build choices, the VMBus driver must
  be loaded before the MSHV driver in order for the SynIC to be
  managed properly (see comments in the MSHV SynIC code).

The fix has two parts:
* Add a Kconfig entry for MSHV_ROOT to depend on HYPERV_VMBUS if
  HYPERV_VMBUS is present. The entry disallows MSHV_ROOT being
  built-in when HYPERV_VMBUS is a module, but without requiring that
  HYPERV_VMBUS be built.
* Add #ifdefs around MSHV SynIC calls to hv_vmbus_exists(). When
  the VMBus driver is present, these calls establish a module
  dependency to ensure that the VMBus driver loads first when both
  are built as modules. But if the VMBus driver is not present,
  the behavior is as if hv_vmbus_exists() returned "false", and
  there is no module dependency.

Existing code ensures that the VMBus driver loads first if it is
built-in. The VMBus driver uses subsys_initcall(), which is
initcall level 4. The MSHV root driver uses module_init(), which
becomes device_init() when built-in, and device_init() is
initcall level 6.
