Subject: [PATCH] vmbus: don't return values for uninitalized channels

From: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@...workplumber.org>

For unsupported device types, the vmbus channel ringbuffer is never
initialized, and therefore reading the sysfs files will return garbage
or cause a kernel OOPS.

Fixes: c2e5df616e1a ("vmbus: add per-channel sysfs info")
