Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix vmbus_wait_for_unload() to scan present CPUs

vmbus_wait_for_unload() may be called in the panic path after other
CPUs are stopped. vmbus_wait_for_unload() currently loops through
online CPUs looking for the UNLOAD response message. But the values of
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE and crash_kexec_post_notifiers affect the path used
to stop the other CPUs, and in one of the paths the stopped CPUs
are removed from cpu_online_mask. This removal happens in both
x86/x64 and arm64 architectures. In such a case, vmbus_wait_for_unload()
only checks the panic'ing CPU, and misses the UNLOAD response message
except when the panic'ing CPU is CPU 0. vmbus_wait_for_unload()
eventually times out, but only after waiting 100 seconds.

Fix this by looping through *present* CPUs in vmbus_wait_for_unload().
The cpu_present_mask is not modified by stopping the other CPUs in the
panic path, nor should it be.

Also, in a CoCo VM the synic_message_page is not allocated in
hv_synic_alloc(), but is set and cleared in hv_synic_enable_regs()
and hv_synic_disable_regs() such that it is set only when the CPU is
online.  If not all present CPUs are online when vmbus_wait_for_unload()
is called, the synic_message_page might be NULL. Add a check for this.
