x86/hyperv: Add VTL mode emergency restart callback
By default, X86(-64) systems use the emergecy restart routine
in the course of which the code unconditionally writes to
the physical address of 0x472 to indicate the boot mode
to the firmware (BIOS or UEFI).
When the kernel itself runs as a firmware in the VTL mode,
that write corrupts the memory of the guest upon emergency
restarting. Preserving the state intact in that situation
is important for debugging, at least.
Define the specialized machine callback to avoid that write
and use the triple fault to perform emergency restart.
