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")

Just wondering, should this be in all bionic kernels too?

I debugged the original issue so I understand the bug well enough to
confirm this is a good fix + it passes the tests and fixes the issue.
