Jan Kiszka 6bd22de73c Drivers: hv: vmbus: Use kthread for vmbus interrupts on PREEMPT_RT 
commit f8e6343b7a upstream.

Resolves the following lockdep report when booting PREEMPT_RT on Hyper-V
with related guest support enabled:

As code paths that handle vmbus IRQs use sleepy locks under PREEMPT_RT,
the vmbus_isr execution needs to be moved into thread context. Open-
coding this allows to skip the IPI that irq_work would additionally
bring and which we do not need, being an IRQ, never an NMI.

This affects both x86 and arm64, therefore hook into the common driver
logic.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
