 Instead, we allocate and free the buffers dynamically only when we recv/send
 data. This means: when a connection is idle, no memory is consumed as
 recv/send buffers at all.

 Dexuan Cui (1):
   hv_sock: introduce Hyper-V Sockets
-
-Changes since v12:
-return ENOMEM on buffer alllocation failure
-
-   Actually "man read/write" says "Other errors may occur, depending on the
-object connected to fd". "man send/recv" indeed lists ENOMEM.
-   Considering AF_HYPERV is a new socket type, ENOMEM seems OK here.
-   In the long run, I think we should add a new API in the VMBus driver,
-allowing data copy from VMBus ringbuffer into user mode buffer directly.
-This way, we can even eliminate this temporary buffer.
