This is the 4th time I send this patch. Is the VMBus infrastructure
used / maintained? Should we deprecate & remove?

get_maintainer.pl: No maintainers found
There's an email thread at [1] explaining the reasons for having VMBus
infrastructure last time such question was asked.
In short: mere presence of a working VMBus is needed for some high-speed
Windows debugging, also people are working on VMBus host device drivers.
Your patch makes sense to me, so for it:
