I have to edit this to get it to work properly with the fact that I
added the driver_data field to hv_vmbus_device_id.

Arguably, one could say that this patch was always broken as you were
assuming the size of an individual field was the same size as the whole
structure, which I don't think is always the case, or at least it's not
a safe thing to assume :)

thanks,
