There is a rare race when we remove an entry from the global list hv_context.percpu_list[cpu] in hv_process_channel_removal() -> percpu_channel_deq() -> list_del(): at this time, if vmbus_on_event() -> process_chn_event() -> pcpu_relid2channel() is trying to query the list, we can get the kernel fault.
Similarly, we also have the issue in the code path: vmbus_process_offer() -> percpu_channel_enq(). We can resolve the issue by disabling the tasklet when updating the list. The patch also moves vmbus_release_relid() to a later place where the channel has been removed from the per-cpu and the global lists.

Thanks, Vitaly! v3: I shouldn't have moved percpu_channel_deq() from hv_process_channel_removal() to vmbus_close_internal(): the channel couldn't be removed from the per-cpu list, if the channel state was not CHANNEL_OPENED_STATE. v3 fixed this. v3 also added 2 wrapper functions for the disable/enable stuff. v3 also moved vmbus_release_relid() to a later safe place.
