[SRU][FOCAL/linux-azure][BIONIC/linux-azure-4.15][PATCH 1/1] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Only notify Hyper-V for die events that are oops

From: Michael Kelley <mikelley at microsoft.com>

Hyper-V currently may be notified of a panic for any die event. But
this results in false panic notifications for various user space traps
that are die events. Fix this by ignoring die events that aren't oops.
