Subject: [PATCH net 5/5] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Remove vmbus_sendpacket_pagebuffer()

From: Michael Kelley <mhklinux@...look.com>

With the netvsc driver changed to use vmbus_sendpacket_mpb_desc()
instead of vmbus_sendpacket_pagebuffer(), the latter has no remaining
callers. Remove it.

Cc: <stable@...r.kernel.org> # 6.1.x
