We try to handle the hypervisor compatibility mode by detecting hypervisor
through a specific order. This is not robust, since hypervisors may implement
each others features.
This patch tries to handle this situation by always choosing the last one in the
CPUID leaves. This is done by letting .detect() return a priority instead of
true/false and just re-using the CPUID leaf where the signature were found as
the priority (or 1 if it was found by DMI). Then we can just pick hypervisor who
has the highest priority. Other sophisticated detection method could also be
implemented on top.
Suggested by H. Peter Anvin and Paolo Bonzini.

Install the Hyper-V specific interrupt handler only when needed. This would
permit us to get rid of the Xen check. Note that when the vmbus drivers invokes
the call to register its handler, we are sure to be running on Hyper-V.

Starting with win8, vmbus interrupts can be delivered on any VCPU in the guest
and furthermore can be concurrently active on multiple VCPUs. Support this
interrupt delivery model by setting up a separate IDT entry for Hyper-V vmbus.
interrupts. I would like to thank Jan Beulich <JBeulich@suse.com> and
Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>, for their help.
In this version of the patch, based on the feedback, I have merged the IDT
vector for Xen and Hyper-V and made the necessary adjustments. Furhermore,
based on Jan's feedback I have added the necessary compilation switches.

Xen emulates Hyper-V to host enlightened Windows. Looks like this
emulation may be turned on by default even for Linux guests. Check and
fail Hyper-V detection if we are on Xen.
[ hpa: the problem here is that Xen doesn't emulate Hyper-V well
enough, and if the Xen support isn't compiled in, we end up stubling
over the Hyper-V emulation and try to activate it -- and it fails. ]

Enable hyperv_clocksource only if its advertised as a feature.
XenServer 6 returns the signature which is checked in
ms_hyperv_platform(), but it does not offer all features. Currently the
clocksource is enabled unconditionally in ms_hyperv_init_platform(), and
the result is a hanging guest.
Hyper-V spec Bit 1 indicates the availability of Partition Reference
Counter. Register the clocksource only if this bit is set.
The guest in question prints this in dmesg:
[ 0.000000] Hypervisor detected: Microsoft HyperV
[ 0.000000] HyperV: features 0x70, hints 0x0
This bug can be reproduced easily be setting 'viridian=1' in a HVM domU
.cfg file. A workaround without this patch is to boot the HVM guest with
'clocksource=jiffies'.

The Hyper-V clocksource driver is best integrated with Hyper-V
detection code since:
(a) Linux guests running on Hyper-V require it
(b) Integration into that code significanly reduces code size

EXPORT_SYMBOL() needs <linux/module.h> to be included; fixes modular
builds of the VMware balloon driver, and any future modular drivers

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.

This should have been GPLv2 only, we cut and pasted from the wrong file
originally, sorry.
Also removed some unneeded boilerplate license code, we all know where
to find the GPLv2, and that there's no warranty as that is implicit from
the license.

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.
