Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] Drivers: hv: check vmbus_device_create() return value in vmbus_process_offer()

vmbus_device_create() result is not being checked in vmbus_process_offer() and
it can fail if kzalloc() fails. Add the check and do minor cleanup to avoid
additional duplication of "free_channel(); return;" block.
