This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
vivid' to 'verification-done-vivid'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Bug description:
  Microsoft has investigated networking with NUMA nodes and Hyper-V and
  found a number of areas where Linux performance could be corrected to
  be in line with other virtual machine types.

  Please include the following commits and their necessary prerequisites
  (which have been accepted upstream into the 4.2 kernel series) into
  the kernels for 15.10, 15.04, 14.04 (including HWE), and 12.04
  (including HWE):
