In a SCSI request, storvsc pre-allocates space for up to
MAX_PAGE_BUFFER_COUNT physical frame numbers to be passed to Hyper-V. If
the size of the I/O request requires more PFNs, a separate memory area of
exactly the correct size is dynamically allocated.
But when the pre-allocated area is used, current code always passes
MAX_PAGE_BUFFER_COUNT PFNs to Hyper-V, even if fewer are needed. While
this doesn't break anything because the additional PFNs are always zero,
more bytes than necessary are copied into the VMBus channel ring buffer.
This takes CPU cycles and wastes space in the ring buffer. For a typical 4
Kbyte I/O that requires only a single PFN, 248 unnecessary bytes are
copied.
Fix this by setting the payload_sz based on the actual number of PFNs
required, not the size of the pre-allocated space.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
