Drivers: hv: Add state to manage incoming channel interrupt load
Add state to bind a channel to a specific VCPU. This will help us better distribute incoming interrupt load. Signed-off-by: K. Y. Srinivasan <kys@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: Haiyang Zhang <haiyangz@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
