Subject: staging: hv: Fix missing functions for net_device_ops
  Unlike in older kernels, ether_setup() no longer sets default
functions. We need to put them into net_device_ops. For example,
eth_change_mtu prevents setting MTU beyond 1500. This is necessary
because we don't support jumbo frame at this time.

So what kernel versions are affected by this?

Please don't attach a patch and put it inline, it forces me to edit it
by hand.

Care to provide the above information and resend it so I can apply it?

thanks,

It affects kernel 2.6.32 and later, which are all versions contain Hyper-V drivers.
I will send out an email with the inline patch only.

Thanks,
