Is is supposed to be applied on top of some other patches? It doesn't
compile on top of current net-next:

drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc.c: In function ‘netvsc_send’:
drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc.c:865:7: error: ‘skb’ undeclared (first use in
this function)
  if (!skb) {
         ^
         
Did you mean to check rndis_msg instead (as skb is not defined here)?

I suppose we untangle these two pathes completely: let
rndis_filter_send_request() call netvsc_send_pkt() directly. Please see
my patch attached (note: it should be split in 3 patches if
submitted). If you like the idea I can send it.
