This patch-set deals with some of the architectural isues in all of
the Hyper-V drivers. Specifically:

	1) All the header files have been cleaned up and consolidated:
		1) A single header file hyperv.h. This file
		   is to be included in all the drivers that attach to the
		   vmbus. This header file will land in include/linux
		   when we exit staging.

		2) A single header file that has all the defines for building
		   the vmbus driver.
		3) Consolidate header files for each device class -
		   disk and net.

	2) Cleaned up the netvsc driver to eliminate struct netvsc_driver as
	   part of conforming to the Linux Driver Model

	3) Cleaned up all driver exit routines to conform to the Linux
	   Driver Model - devices persist even if no driver is bound to
	   them

	4) Fixed the sparse warning in Hyper-V drivers.


Regads,

K. Y
