[PATCH] Drivers: hv: vmbus: finally fix hv_need_to_signal_on_read()

[Dexuan Cui]

Commit a389fcfd2cb5 ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix signaling logic in hv_need_to_signal_on_read()")
added the proper mb(), but removed the test "prev_write_sz < pending_sz"
when making the signal decision.

As a result, the guest can signal the host unnecessarily,
and then the host can throttle the guest because the host
thinks the guest is buggy or malicious; finally the user
running stress test can perceive intermittent freeze of
the guest.

This patch brings back the test, and properly handles the
in-place consumption APIs used by NetVSC (see get_next_pkt_raw(),
put_pkt_raw() and commit_rd_index()).

The patch also changes drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc.c (Haiyang Zhang
and Stephen Hemminger have known about this patch).

This is a must, because only applying the VMBus changes will
break the netvsc driver, so the patch should go through the
char-misc tree as a whole.

The changes to netvsc.c are small enough, and hence there should be
no conflict.
