Char/Misc driver fixes for 4.20-rc8

Here are 3 tiny last-minute driver fixes for 4.20-rc8 that resolve some
reported issues, and one MAINTAINERS file update.

All of them are related to the hyper-v subsystem, it seems people are
actually testing and using it now, which is nice to see :)

The fixes are:
  - uio_hv_generic: fix for opening multiple times
  - Remove PCI dependancy on hyperv drivers
  - return proper error code for an unopened channel.

And Sasha has signed up to help out with the hyperv maintainership.

All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues.
