Dexuan Cui ae0078fcf0 hv_sock: implements Hyper-V transport for Virtual Sockets (AF_VSOCK)
Hyper-V Sockets (hv_sock) supplies a byte-stream based communication
mechanism between the host and the guest. It uses VMBus ringbuffer as the
transportation layer.

With hv_sock, applications between the host (Windows 10, Windows Server
2016 or newer) and the guest can talk with each other using the traditional
socket APIs.

More info about Hyper-V Sockets is available here:

The patch implements the necessary support in Linux guest by introducing a new
vsock transport for AF_VSOCK.
