Drivers: hv: vmbus: Resolve race between init_vp_index() and CPU hotplug

vmbus_process_offer() does two things (among others):

 1) first, it sets the channel's target CPU with cpu_hotplug_lock;
 2) it then adds the channel to the channel list(s) with channel_mutex.

Since cpu_hotplug_lock is released before (2), the channel's target CPU
(as designated in (1)) can be deemed "free" by hv_synic_cleanup() and go
offline before the channel is added to the list.

Fix the race condition by "extending" the cpu_hotplug_lock critical
section to include (2) (and (1)), nesting the channel_mutex critical
section within the cpu_hotplug_lock critical section as done elsewhere
(hv_synic_cleanup(), target_cpu_store()) in the hyperv drivers code.

Move even further by extending the channel_mutex critical section to
include (1) (and (2)): this change allows to remove (the now redundant)
bind_channel_to_cpu_lock, and generally simplifies the handling of the
target CPUs (that are now always modified with channel_mutex held).
