RE: [PATCH v7 1/3] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Add vmbus_requestor data structure for VMBus hardening

Currently, VMbus drivers use pointers into guest memory as request IDs
for interactions with Hyper-V. To be more robust in the face of errors
or malicious behavior from a compromised Hyper-V, avoid exposing
guest memory addresses to Hyper-V. Also avoid Hyper-V giving back a
bad request ID that is then treated as the address of a guest data
structure with no validation. Instead, encapsulate these memory
addresses and provide small integers as request IDs.

This is a nit, but the above would be clearer to me if written like this:

	flags = desc->flags;
	if (flags == VMBUS_DATA_PACKET_FLAG_COMPLETION_REQUESTED) {
		rqst_id = vmbus_next_request_id(&channel->requestor, requestid);
		if (rqst_id == VMBUS_RQST_ERROR) {
			pr_err("No request id available\n");
			return -EAGAIN;
		}
	} else {
		rqst_id = requestid;
	}
	desc = hv_get_ring_buffer(outring_info) + old_write;
	desc->trans_id = rqst_id;

The value of the flags field controls what will be used as the value for the
rqst_id.  Having another test to see which value will be used as the trans_id
somehow feels a bit redundant.  And then rqst_id doesn't have to be initialized.

Of course, with my proposed change, the above test would also have to be for
the value of the flags field, which actually makes the code a bit more consistent.
