A better subject line is:
[PATCH] hv_netvsc: Fix a warning triggered by memcpy in rndis_filter

(please refer to "git log drivers/net/hyperv/rndis_filter.c", and there was
a typo in your subject: s/trigered/triggered )

> A bugcheck is trigered when the response message len exceeds
s/bugcheck/warning

I think a bugcheck is a crash in Windows's terminology.
Here it's just a harmless warning rather than a crash.
