[Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We are in a bit of a mess here.  To clean this up and end up with a
consistant fix applied to all the prime releases I am submitting patch
kits to apply this fix for Trusty, and revert the current fix and apply
this to Utopic.  I have also applied this fix to both Vivid v3.18 and
v3.19 based kernels going forward.  Once this has all made it through
process we should have a single common fix on all releases Trusty and
later.

Title:
  Hyper-V TRIM Feature Broken in current LTS trusty kernel

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Trusty:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Utopic:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Vivid:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The TRIM/UNMAP feature is broken in the current trusty kernel with
  Hyper-V because of the reversion of this commit:

  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-
  trusty.git;a=commit;h=81a73bce0c7b86fbf51004cb171387e73e082784

  However a proposed storvsc patch has been submitted to the upstream
  kernel mailing list which could be found here:

  https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/5503381/

  In Hyper-V TRIM/UNMAP allows the user to reclaim allocated storage that is no longer in use inside a thin provisioned VHDX volume.
