NAPI for netvsc is ready but the merge coordination is a nuisance.
Since netvsc NAPI support requires other changes that are proceeding through
GregKH's char-misc tree. I would like to send the two patches after current net-next
and char-misc-next are merged into Linus's tree.
Need these (at a minimum) these changes
6e47dd3e2938 ("vmbus: expose hv_begin/end_read")
5529eaf6e79a ("vmbus: remove conditional locking of vmbus_write")
b71e328297a3 ("vmbus: add direct isr callback mode")
631e63a9f346 ("vmbus: change to per channel tasklet")
37cdd991fac8 ("vmbus: put related per-cpu variable together")
Please let me know when linux-net is up to date with these.

The 'net' tree is now current with Linus's current tree, and all of
those above commits seem to be there.

Great thanks. I will merge the NAPI and retest.
