Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the net-next tree with the char-misc.current tree

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the net-next tree got a conflict in:

  drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc.c

between commit:

  433e19cf33d3 ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: finally fix hv_need_to_signal_on_read()")

from the char-misc.current tree and commits:

  0b307ebd6834 ("netvsc: remove no longer needed receive staging buffers")
  46b4f7f5d1f7 ("netvsc: eliminate per-device outstanding send counter")

from the net-next tree.

I fixed it up (I think, but I have no idea what this code actually
does :-) - see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This is now
fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial conflicts
should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree is
submitted for merging.  You may also want to consider cooperating with
the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.
