Subject: [PATCH] x86/hyperv: Restrict get_vtl to only VTL platforms

For non VTL platforms vtl is always 0, and there is no need of
get_vtl function. For VTL platforms get_vtl should always succeed
and should return the correct VTL.

Nitpick: arch/x86/hyperv/hv_init.c lacks pr_fmt so the message won't get
prefixed with "Hyper-V". I'm not sure 'VTL' abbreviation has the only,
Hyper-V specific meaning. I'd suggest we add

#define pr_fmt(fmt) "Hyper-V: " fmt

to the beginning of the file.

Is 'else' branch really needed? 'ms_hyperv' seems to be a statically
allocated global. But instead of doing this, what about putting the
whole get_vtl() funtion under '#if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HYPERV_VTL_MODE))', i.e.:

#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HYPERV_VTL_MODE)
static u8 __init get_vtl(void)
{
u64 control = HV_HYPERCALL_REP_COMP_1 | HVCALL_GET_VP_REGISTERS;
...
}
#else
static inline get_vtl(void) { return 0; }
#endif

and then we can always do

ms_hyperv.vtl = get_vtl();

unconditionally?

Good suggestion, I can do this as a separate patch.

Fine with me, can update in v2.
