Thx. Due this fact I also found another issue with it. Somehow some
other patch is needed to get it compiled with gcc 6.1 series.

https://github.com/manjaro/packages-core/issues/40

It simply fails with:

In file included from drivers/hid/hid-hyperv.c:16:0:
include/linux/module.h:138:40: error: storage size of
‘__mod_vmbus__id_table_device_table’ isn’t known

This happens also to 3.16.35 and 3.18.33. Any clue why? Seems gcc is a
little harsh on it.
