No further test results from Microsoft. Consequence of regression is
low. Marking verification done for now.

Bug description:
  SRU Justification

  [Impact]

  Microsoft relayed a customer report of failures when trying to take a
  kdump.

  These 3 patches fix the issue:
  
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/video/fbdev/hyperv_fb.c?id=aa5b7d11c7cb87c266d705b237368985e7171958
  
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c?id=77db0ec8b7764cb9b09b78066ebfd47b2c0c1909
  
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c?id=8c2d5e0640e53c14b6240e9bf1e32a2226e6e6ca

  Patch #1 solves a problem where the “Unable to send packet via vmbus”
  message is output continuously. But with that problem fixed, the
  second problem can occur where the kdump kernel panics due to
  receiving an unexpected VMbus UNLOAD complete message.

  Patch #2 prevents the UNLOAD complete message from ever occurring in
  the kdump kernel. But if the UNLOAD complete message does occur at
  some unexpected time, Patch #3 prevents it from causing a panic.

  These patches seem worthy of application to all affected master
  kernels.

  [Test Plan]

  Cause a guest kernel to crash and successfully acquire a kdump.

  [Where problems could occur]

  The extended Hyper-V wait while flushing could cause side effects.
