hv_netvsc: Add a comment clarifying batching logic

The batching logic in netvsc_send is non-trivial, due to
a combination of the Linux API and the underlying hypervisor
interface. Add a comment explaining why the code is written this
way.

+/* Batching/bouncing logic is designed to attempt to optimize
+ * performance.
+ *
+ * For small, non-LSO packets we copy the packet to a send buffer
+ * which is pre-registered with the Hyper-V side. This enables the
+ * hypervisor to avoid remapping the aperture to access the packet
+ * descriptor and data.
+ *
+ * If we already started using a buffer and the netdev is transmitting
+ * a burst of packets, keep on copying into the buffer until it is
+ * full or we are done collecting a burst. If there is an existing
+ * buffer with space for the RNDIS descriptor but not the packet, copy
+ * the RNDIS descriptor to the buffer, keeping the packet in place.
+ *
+ * If we do batching and send more than one packet using a single
+ * NetVSC message, free the SKBs of the packets copied, except for the
+ * last packet. This is done to streamline the handling of the case
+ * where the last packet only had the RNDIS descriptor copied to the
+ * send buffer, with the data pointers included in the NetVSC message.
