That's a nice name, but it's the first one with a "hyperv_" prefix in
this subsystem.  Ok, second, but hyperv_service_context doesn't really
count as it's not really used.

Everything else is named "hv_" here.  Which is it going to be, "hv_" or
"hyperv_"?

Either is fine, just be aware of the work involved if you pick
"hyperv_"...

You also rename vm_device_info to hyperv_device_info here, doing more
than one thing in a single patch.

Please don't do that, this should be 2 patches.

Ick, why break the formatting like this?  Please keep the return type on
the same line as the function name.

You do that in a number of places, please don't.

thanks,
