Drivers: hv: vmbus: Refactor chan->state if statement
The chan->state "if statement" was introduced in commit 6712cc9c2211
("vmbus: don't return values for uninitalized channels"). That commit
states that the purpose of the chan->state "if statement" is to prevent
returning garbage or causing a kernel OOPS when the channel ring buffer
is not initialized. The changes in this patch provide the same
protection.
Refactor the chan->state “if statement” in vmbus_chan_attr_show():
- Instead of checking the channel state in the "if statement", check
whether the channel ring buffer pointer is NULL. Checking the
ring buffer pointer makes this code consistent with
hv_ringbuffer_get_debuginfo().
- Move the "if statement" to the four "_show" functions that access a
channel ring buffer. Only four of the channel-level "_show" functions
access a ring buffer. The ring buffer pointer does not need to be
checked before calling the other "_show" functions, and moving the
ring buffer pointer "if statement" to the "_show" functions that
access a ring buffer makes the purpose of the "if statement" clear.
