[PATCH net v2 4/5] hv_netvsc: protect module refcount by checking net_device_ctx->vf_netdev

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>
Date: 2016-08-15 15:49:41
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: hyper-v/azure core and drivers, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: "K. Y. Srinivasan", Haiyang Zhang, Wei Liu, Dexuan Cui, Long Li, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

We're not guaranteed to see NETDEV_REGISTER/NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifications
only once per VF but we increase/decrease module refcount unconditionally.
Check vf_netdev to make sure we don't take/release it twice. We presume
that only one VF per netvsc device may exist.
