[PATCH v4 2/2] Drivers: hv: Make the sysfs node size for the ring buffer dynamic

The ring buffer size varies across VMBus channels. The size of sysfs
node for the ring buffer is currently hardcoded to 4 MB. Userspace
clients either use fstat() or hardcode this size for doing mmap().
To address this, make the sysfs node size dynamic to reflect the
actual ring buffer size for each channel. This will ensure that
fstat() on ring sysfs node always return the correct size of
ring buffer.
