[PATCH] HV: properly delay KVP packets when negotiation is in progress

From: Long Li
Date: Thu Mar 16 2017 - 15:51:51 EST


The host may send multiple KVP packets before the negotiation with daemon
is finished. We need to keep those packets in ring buffer until the daemon
is negotiated and connected.

This patch is based on the work of Nick Meier <Nick.Meier@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
