4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: K. Y. Srinivasan <kys@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit b9830d120cbe155863399f25eaef6aa8353e767f upstream. Pass the channel information to the util drivers that need to defer reading the channel while they are processing a request. This would address the following issue reported by Vitaly: Commit 3cace4a61610 ("Drivers: hv: utils: run polling callback always in interrupt context") removed direct *_transaction.state = HVUTIL_READY assignments from *_handle_handshake() functions introducing the following race: if a userspace daemon connects before we get first non-negotiation request from the server hv_poll_channel() won't set transaction state to HVUTIL_READY as (!channel) condition will fail, we set it to non-NULL on the first real request from the server.
