staging: unisys: visorchannel: Add peek function

According to unisys, the s_par hypervisor has a bug in which it never
triggers an interrupt.  That makes the visornic effectively a 2ms poll
loop.  In order to just have the rx thread shceduling a napi poll every
2ms, lets instead give it the chance to check the response queue for
data before we schedule.  This helper provides that functionality
