[PATCH v2 3/7] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Avoid double fetch of payload_size in vmbus_on_msg_dpc()

[Andrea Parri (Microsoft)]

vmbus_on_msg_dpc() double fetches from payload_size.  The double fetch
can lead to a buffer overflow when (mem)copying the hv_message object.
Avoid the double fetch by saving the value of payload_size into a local
variable.
