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.
