Convert vmbus driver interface function pointer table to constant
The vmbus interface functions are assigned to a constant - vmbus_ops.
Because the vmbus interface function pointer table is converted to a
constant variable -- vmbus_ops, the function GetChannelInterface(),
VmbusGetChannelInterface() and pointer GetChannelInterface are no longer
in use. The deprecated function's work is done by the initialization of
the newly added constant variable vmbus_ops.
I created the new constant variable vmbus_ops and removed the deprecated
function pointer GetChannelInterface in one patch.

Remove Ringbuffer work line item from TODO file.
The ring buffer in the Hyper-V Linux drivers is used to communicate with
the parent partition running Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V. The ring
buffer functionality on the Hyper-V Linux drivers is written to be
functionally compatible with the ring buffer functionality on the
Hyper-V Server. Consequently, it is not possible to make any changes
that might break the compatibility with server side ring buffer
implementation.

Remove a few items that have already been resolved.
There are only a few checkpatch issues, they need to be resolved
by larger code logic changes that are not "simple" changes.
