Subject: [PATCH 2/4] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix the issue with freeing up hv_ctl_table_hdr

From: Sunil Muthuswamy <sunilmut@...rosoft.com>

The check to free the Hyper-V control table header was reversed. This
fixes it.

Fixes: 81b18bce48af ("Drivers: HV: Send one page worth of kmsg dump over Hyper-V during panic")
