Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Stage: hv: Remove Ringbuffer from TODO line

From: Hank Janssen <hjanssen@...rosoft.com>

Remove Ringbuffer work line item from TODO file. 

The ring buffer in the Hyper-V Linux drivers is used to communicate with 
the parent partition running Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V. The ring buffer functionality 
on the Hyper-V Linux drivers is written to be functionally compatible with 
the ring buffer functionality on the Hyper-V Server. Consequently, it is not 
possible to make any changes that might break the compatibility with server 
side ring buffer implementation.
