4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
[ Upstream commit 63d55b2aeb5e4faa170316fee73c3c47ea9268c7 ]
process_chn_event(), running in the tasklet, can race with
vmbus_close_internal() in the case of SMP guest, e.g., when the former is
accessing channel->inbound.ring_buffer, the latter could be freeing the
ring_buffer pages.
To resolve the race, we can serialize them by disabling the tasklet when
the latter is running here.
