Drivers: hv: vmbus: Teardown clockevent devices on module unload
Newly introduced clockevent devices made it impossible to unload hv_vmbus
module as clockevents_config_and_register() takes additional reverence to
the module. To make it possible again we do the following:
- avoid setting dev->owner for clockevent devices;
- implement hv_synic_clockevents_cleanup() doing clockevents_unbind_device();
- call it from vmbus_exit().
In theory hv_synic_clockevents_cleanup() can be merged with hv_synic_cleanup(),
however, we call hv_synic_cleanup() from smp_call_function_single() and this
doesn't work for clockevents_unbind_device() as it does such call on its own. I
opted for a separate function.
