To me, it seems like when 'hvs_close_connection' is called, there should always be
an outstanding reference to the socket. The reference that is dropped by
' hvs_do_close_lock_held' is a legitimate reference that was taken by 'hvs_close_lock_held'.
Or, in other words, I think the right solution is to always maintain a reference to socket
until this routine is called and drop that here. That can be done by taking the reference to
the socket prior to ' vmbus_set_chn_rescind_callback(chan, hvs_close_connection)' and
dropping that reference at the end of 'hvs_close_connection'.

Thanks for taking a look at this. We should queue this fix and the other hvsocket fixes
for the stable branch.
