We actually only need one patch here. I have posted it to LKML: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9995011/

However, when I look at the 4.11 ubuntu-azure kernel (https://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-azure/log/?h=master-next), I think we need to pull more related vmbus patches from the mainline, because there are already non-trivial differences.

Since we're moving to 4.13 (https://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-azure/log/?h=azure-edge-next), I'm not sure if we should pull non-trivial changes to the 4.11 ubuntu-azure kernel.
