[PATCH net-next 2/2] hv_netvsc: pair VF based on serial number

Matching network device based on MAC address is problematic
since a non-VF network device can be created with a duplicate MAC
address causing confusion and problems.  The VMBus API provides
a serial number that is a better matching method.
