Applied to my staging tree for 4.18/scsi-queue. Thanks!

Maybe best through greg's char-misc tree since it has generic hv code and 
sometime updates both network and scsi.

Alternatively,  put common code through one tree, and hold off the network 
device change till next release.

Martin,

I hope this patch set goes through SCSI, because it's purpose is to improve 
storvsc.

If this strategy is not possible, I can resubmit the 1st two patches to net, 
and the 3rd patch to scsi after the 1st two are merged.

Martin,

storvsc.

If this strategy is not possible, I can resubmit the 1st two patches to net, 
and the 3rd patch to scsi after the 1st two are merged.

What is the submission strategy for this series? Do you expect it to go
through net or scsi? If the latter, I'll need an ack from davem.
