Subject: [PATCH 1/1] staging: hv: Doubled ringbuffer size for Hyper-v network
 driver


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

Double the default network ringsize buffer for Hyper-V network driver.
In very heavily loaded systems the there is a chance you run out of
ringbuffer space and error out.
