Public bug reported:

The following critical bugfix has been accepted into the upstream
kernel. It is needed for 15.10, 15.02, 14.10, 14.04 and 14.04 HWE (and,
by extension, 12.04 and 12.04 HWE). We have seen IHV drivers in the
field throw errors and time out due to receiving SRB flags set when no
data transfer is expected.

storvsc: Set the SRB flags correctly when no data transfer is needed
Set the SRB flags correctly when there is no data transfer.  Without this
change some IHV drivers will fail valid commands such as TEST_UNIT_READY.
