Re: [PATCH net-next,1/1] hyperv: Move wait completion msg code into rndis_filter_halt_device()

We need to wait for send_completion msg before put_rndis_request() at
the end of rndis_filter_halt_device(). Otherwise, netvsc_send_completion()
may reference freed memory which is overwritten, and cause panic.

This is a bug fix, so applied to 'net'.  Please target your patches
properly.

Don't just be afraid that I'll reject the patch if you target it
at 'net', and therefore just target everything at 'net-next'.  That
is certainly worse.
