stephen hemminger 732e49850c netvsc: fix race on sub channel creation
The existing sub channel code did not wait for all the sub-channels
to completely initialize. This could lead to race causing crash
in napi_netif_del() from bad list. The existing code would send
an init message, then wait only for the initial response that
the init message was received. It thought it was waiting for
sub channels but really the init response did the wakeup.

The new code keeps track of the number of open channels and
waits until that many are open.

Other issues here were:
  * host might return less sub-channels than was requested.
  * the new init status is not valid until after init was completed.

Fixes: b3e6b82a00 ("hv_netvsc: Wait for sub-channels to be processed during probe")

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
