Kimberly Brown 14948e3944 Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix race condition with new ring_buffer_info mutex
Fix a race condition that can result in a ring buffer pointer being set
to null while a "_show" function is reading the ring buffer's data. This
problem was discussed here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/10/18/779

To fix the race condition, add a new mutex lock to the
"hv_ring_buffer_info" struct. Add a new function,
"hv_ringbuffer_pre_init()", where a channel's inbound and outbound
ring_buffer_info mutex locks are initialized.

Acquire/release the locks in the "hv_ringbuffer_cleanup()" function,
which is where the ring buffer pointers are set to null.

Acquire/release the locks in the four channel-level "_show" functions
that access ring buffer data. Remove the "const" qualifier from the
"vmbus_channel" parameter and the "rbi" variable of the channel-level
"_show" functions so that the locks can be acquired/released in these
functions.

Acquire/release the locks in hv_ringbuffer_get_debuginfo(). Remove the
"const" qualifier from the "hv_ring_buffer_info" parameter so that the
locks can be acquired/released in this function.
