Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Drivers: hv: utils: Continue to poll VSS channel after handling requests.

From: Alex Ng <alexng@...rosoft.com>

Multiple VSS_OP_HOT_BACKUP requests may arrive in quick succession, even
though the host only signals once. The driver wass handling the first
request while ignoring the others in the ring buffer. We should poll the
VSS channel after handling a request to continue processing other requests.
