[PATCH 1/1] Staging: hv: netvsc: Cleanup the name and type of link_stat variable

[K. Y. Srinivasan]

Consistently name the variable tracking the link status. Use a consistent
type for this variable and get rid of some unnecessary parentheses as well.
I would like to thank Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> for suggesting these
changes and patiently helping me get here!

Are you sure you can do this?
You're changing the info request from u32 to bool
without changing the size above it

	u32 size = sizeof(u32);

It's better to remove the multiple "\n"s from "up" and "down"
and move it to the format string as I suggested.
