Subject: [PATCH net-next] hv_netvsc: fix vf serial matching with pci slot info

From: Haiyang Zhang <haiyangz@microsoft.com>

The VF device's serial number is saved as a string in PCI slot's kobj name, not
the slot->number. This patch corrects the netvsc driver, so the VF device can be
successfully paired with synthetic NIC.

Fixes: 00d7ddba1143 ("hv_netvsc: pair VF based on serial number")

Thanks Stephen for the reminder -- I added the "reported-by" here:
