The patch makes sense, but I have one small doubt. We call vmbus_open
from probe functions of various devices. E.g. in hyperv-keyboard we
have:
 error = vmbus_open(...)
 if (error)
     goto err_free_mem;

and we don't call vmbus_close(...) on this path so no
CHANNELMSG_CLOSECHANNEL will be send. Who's gonna retry probe? Wouldn't
it be better to close the channel?
