Praveen Kumar e5d9b714fe x86/hyperv: fix root partition faults when writing to VP assist page MSR
For root partition the VP assist pages are pre-determined by the
hypervisor. The root kernel is not allowed to change them to
different locations. And thus, we are getting below stack as in
current implementation root is trying to perform write to specific
MSR.

    [ 2.778197] unchecked MSR access error: WRMSR to 0x40000073 (tried to write 0x0000000145ac5001) at rIP: 0xffffffff810c1084 (native_write_msr+0x4/0x30)

Since the hypervisor already provides the VP assist pages for root
partition, we need to memremap the memory from hypervisor for root
kernel to use. The mapping is done in hv_cpu_init during bringup and is
unmapped in hv_cpu_die during teardown.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
