nit: I know this file doesn't follow the scheme very closely,
but I'd preferred if it moved towards it.

Please use reverse xmas tree - longest line to shortest -
for local variable declarations in networking code.

struct rndis_device *rndis_dev = net_dev->extension;
struct net_device *net = hv_get_drvdata(dev);
struct net_device_context *ndc;

ndc = netdev_priv(net);
