Bug description:
  [Availability]: The hv-kvp-daemon-init has been in Universe since
  Precise

  [Rationale]: The hv-kvp-daemon-init is provided in the linux-tools
  package. However, there is no init script to start the daemon. This
  daemon is required in order to facilitate communication between
  Hyper-V hypervisors and the kernel.

  This package is a build requirement for the 13.04 Cloud Images for
  Windows Azure. Per policy, only pacakges from main are allowed on
  Cloud Images.

  [Security]: This init script packaging does not expose any services.
  Rather, it simply starts a daemon from the the linux-tools package.

  [Quality assurance]: Due to the rather simplistic nature of the
  hv_kvp_daemon package, it will be easily maintained.

  [Dependencies]: linux-tools, which is in main already.

  [Maintenance]: The maintaince of this package is realatively simple
  due to the packge being only an upstart job. This package will be
  maintained and tracked by the Canonical Cloud Ecosystems team.
