Public bug reported:

Issue description:
Attaching a Legacy network adapter to a VM will not be detected on the VM side.
This is not the case with synthetic adapters, which are properly identified.

Steps to Reproduce: 
1.     Add a Legacy Network adapter to the VM
2.     Boot the vm
3.     Verify the identified network adapter, the legacy NIC is missing

Versions details:
Windows Server Host Edition: Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter build 
9600 and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard  SP 1 build 7601
Distribution name and release: Ubuntu Vivid Vervet
Kernel version: Linux ubuntu31 3.19.0-11-generic #11lp14233432v201504021617 SMP


Hyper-V side:
PS> Get-VMNetworkAdapter -VMName vivid1

Name                   IsManagementOs VMName SwitchName MacAddress   Status 
IPAddresses
----                   -------------- ------ ---------- ----------   ------

Network Adapter        False          vivid1 external   00155D06332D {Ok}   
{IP, fe80::215:5dff:fe06:332d}
Legacy Network Adapter False          vivid1 external   00155D063336 {Ok}   {}

On the VM Side:
root@ubuntu31:~# ls /sys/class/net/
eth0  lo

eth0 has the MAC of the Network Adapter, which is the synthetic
interface.

This has been verified with also 1 vCPU or with irqbalancer daemon
disabled, as that is a common requirements when using legacy adapters.
