How does this bug look like to the user? Memory corruption?
It's weird to me reviewing this code that the default sizes are
stored in netvsc_drv.c and the max sizes are stored in hyperv_net.h.
Could we move these to hyperv_net.h? We could write it like:
#define NETVSC_DEFAULT_RX ((16 * 1024 * 1024) / NETVSC_RECV_SECTION_SIZE)
16MB is sort of a weird default because it's larger than the 15MB
allowed for legacy versions, but it's smaller than the 32MB you'd want
for the current versions.
