Thanks. I had seen this other small series for the driver used by Linux
when running as the root partition (i.e., "dom0") on the Hyper-V
hypervisor. Unfortunately, I have less familiarity with that configuration,
and I lack access to hardware needed to run and test it. Someone at
Microsoft would need to look at the patches and give them a basic smoke
test with Linux-as-root.

FWIW, I was a Microsoft employee for many years, working on Linux
guests on Hyper-V. But I retired about 2 years ago. Though I've kept my
hands in Linux kernel work, my access to hardware configs is more
limited than when I was an employee -- now it's guest VMs on my
personal laptop and Azure VMs.
