[bionic/linux-azure][PATCH] UBUNTU: SAUCE: vmbus: don't return values for uninitalized channels

From: Stephen Hemminger <stephen at networkplumber.org>

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789638

For unsupported device types, the vmbus channel ringbuffer is never
initialized, and therefore reading the sysfs files will return garbage
or cause a kernel OOPS.

Fixes: c2e5df616e1a ("vmbus: add per-channel sysfs info")
