e08cae4181 x86: Clean up the hypervisor layer
Clean up the hypervisor layer and the hypervisor drivers, using an ops
structure instead of an enumeration with if statements.

The identity of the hypervisor, if needed, can be tested by testing
the pointer value in x86_hyper.

The MS-HyperV private state is moved into a normal global variable
(it's per-system state, not per-CPU state).  Being a normal bss
variable, it will be left at all zero on non-HyperV platforms, and so
can generally be tested for HyperV-specific features without
additional qualification.

a2a47c6c3d x86: Detect running on a Microsoft HyperV system
This patch integrates HyperV detection within the framework currently
used by VmWare. With this patch, we can avoid having to replicate the
HyperV detection code in each of the Microsoft HyperV drivers.

Reworked and tweaked by Greg K-H to build properly.
