Long Li a3ade8cc47 HV: properly delay KVP packets when negotiation is in progress
The host may send multiple negotiation packets
(due to timeout) before the KVP user-mode daemon
is connected. KVP user-mode daemon is connected.
We need to defer processing those packets
until the daemon is negotiated and connected.
It's okay for guest to respond
to all negotiation packets.

In addition, the host may send multiple staged
KVP requests as soon as negotiation is done.
We need to properly process those packets using one
tasklet for exclusive access to ring buffer.

This patch is based on the work of
Nick Meier <Nick.Meier@microsoft.com>.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
