[PATCH] hyperv: Add netpoll support

[Richard Weinberger]

In order to have at least a netconsole to debug kernel issues on
Windows Azure this patch implements netpoll support.
Sending packets is easy, netvsc_start_xmit() does already everything
needed.
To receive we need to trigger the channel callback which is usally
called via tasklet_schedule().
