Bug Description

Update the algorithm in storvsc_do_io to look for a channel
starting with the current CPU + 1 and wrap around (within the
current NUMA node). This spreads VMbus interrupts more evenly
across CPUs. Previous code always started with first CPU in
the current NUMA node, skewing the interrupt load to that CPU.

This should be applied to the linux-azure kernel

Josh. Should that patch also be applied to the 4.14 azure-edge kernel?

We should apply it to the azure 4.13 kernel (and beyond), but I think we will jump azure-edge to 4.15 as soon as it GAs and seems stable in hopes of switching linux-azure to 4.15 as the next bump. This way linux-azure for 16.04 and 18.04 will be the same.
