    hv_netvsc: Process NETDEV_GOING_DOWN on VF hot remove
    
    [ Upstream commit 34b06a2eee44d469f2e2c013a83e6dac3aff6411 ]
    
    On VF hot remove, NETDEV_GOING_DOWN is sent to notify the VF is about to
    go down. At this time, the VF is still sending/receiving traffic and we
    request the VSP to switch datapath.
    
    On completion, the datapath is switched to synthetic and we can proceed
    with VF hot remove.
