If hv_netvsc driver is removed and reloaded, the NET_DEVICE_REGISTER handler cannot perform VF register successfully as the register call is received before netvsc_probe is finished. This is because we register register_netdevice_notifier() very early(even before vmbus_driver_register()). To fix this, we try to register each such matching VF( if it is visible as a netdevice) at the end of netvsc_probe.

Does not seem to apply to net/main, please respin
This patch applies to net, which is missed in the subject. I will fix this in the new version of the patch. Thanks
