== SRU Justification ==
Microsoft has identified a multiple-NIC-deadlock issue on Hyper-V VMs.
This bug is fixed by the seven commits in this pull request.

These commits fix a regression introduced by mainline commit 8195b1396ec8.

These commits are also needed in Cosmic and Bionic.  Cosmic only requires
two of these commits and Bionic requres one addition commit.  Due to this,
their SRU requests will be sent separate.

== Regression Potential ==
Low, limited to hyperv.

== Test Case ==
Microsoft ran tests with these commits are confirm they resolve the bug
and do not introduce any regressions.
