commit 666b9adc801ef012612c4e43e0f44b2cdc1979cf terminated vmbus
version negotiation incorrectly. We need to terminate the version
negotiation only if the current negotiation were to timeout.

<title>hv: make "monitor_pages" a "real" pointer array</title>

monitor_pages was a void pointer, containing an unknown number of arrays that
we just "knew" were a child and parent array of a specific size.  Instead of
that implicit knowledge, let's make them a real pointer, allowing us to have
type safety, and a semblance of sane addressing schemes.

The current code would attempt to negotiate a different protocol version if
the current negotiation timed out. This triggers an assert in the host (on debug
builds). Avoid this by negotiating a newer version only if the host properly
rejects the current version being negotiated.

Starting with Win8, the host supports multiple sub-channels for a given
device. As in the past, the initial channel offer specifies the device and
is associated with both the type and the instance GUIDs. For performance
critical devices, the host may support multiple sub-channels. The sub-channels
share the same type and instance GUID as the primary channel. The number of
sub-channels offerrred to the guest depends on the number of virtual CPUs
assigned to the guest. The guest can request the creation of these sub-channels
and once created and opened, the guest can distribute the traffic across all
the channels (the primary and the sub-channels). A request sent on a sub-channel
will have the response delivered on the same sub-channel.

At channel (sub-channel) creation we bind the channel interrupt to a CPU and
with this sub-channel support we will be able to spread the interrupt load
of a given device across all available CPUs.

On win7 (ws2008 R2) and beyond, we have the notion of having dedicated interrupts on
a per-channel basis. When a channel has a dedicated interrupt assigned, there is no need
to set the interrupt bit in the shared page. Implement this optimization.
