33be96e47c net/hyperv: Add flow control based on hi/low watermark
In the existing code, we only stop queue when the ringbuffer is full,
so the current packet has to be dropped or retried from upper layer.

This patch stops the tx queue when available ringbuffer is below
the low watermark. So the ringbuffer still has small amount of space
available for the current packet. This will reduce the overhead of
retries on sending.

453263421f net/hyperv: Remove unnecessary kmap_atomic in netvsc driver
__get_free_pages() doesn't return HI memory, so the memory is always mapped.
kmap_atomic() is not necessary here. This patch removes the kmap_atomic()
calls and related code for locking and page manipulation.

1d06825b0e net/hyperv: Fix the stop/wake queue mechanism
The ring buffer is only used to pass meta data for outbound packets. The
actual payload is accessed by DMA from the host. So the stop/wake queue
mechanism based on counting and comparing number of pages sent v.s. number
of pages in the ring buffer is wrong. Also, there is a race condition in
the stop/wake queue calls, which can stop xmit queue forever.

The new stop/wake queue mechanism is based on the actual bytes used by
outbound packets in the ring buffer. The check for number of outstanding
sends after stop queue prevents the race condition that can cause wake
queue happening earlier than stop queue.
