Subject: [PATCH 1/1] drivers: hv: Don't OOPS when you cannot init vmbus

The hv vmbus driver was causing an OOPS since it was trying to register drivers
on top of the bus even if initialization of the bus has failed for some
reason (such as the odd chance someone would run a hv enabled kernel in a
non-hv environment).
