vmbus: not having uio_hv_generic is not an error
If uio_hv_generic is not loaded, then the startup code will fallback to the older failsafe/tap method of initialization in DPDK. Therefore don't put out scary message in the log. Also, reorder startup to avoid manipulating lower device until/unless uio is going to work.
