It looks like there is a missing return after out:
all the fall throughs in that path should just work with single queue.
The current code would fail on old versions of Hyper-V.


This should be enough to fix the problem:

diff --git a/drivers/net/hyperv/rndis_filter.c b/drivers/net/hyperv/rndis_filter.c
