the latter does not seem to be correct to me.
MS spec has bug, see this thread:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/2/655
and the change was Acked-by: K.Y.
What happens in the patched code is this: when the sequence counter
wraps around and hits an invalid value, skip to the next valid one.
I think Paolo wanted to be compatible not only with the de facto
implementation in Windows Hyper-V guests, but also with the Linux driver
which followed the buggy spec and thought 0xFFFFFFFF to be invalid.
So the change is fine (as long as there's || rather than a space there
;)
this seems reasonable, you are right :)
Thank you for the explanation.
