[hyperv] Do not steal ownership from the Gen 2 UEFI firmware
We must not steal ownership from the Gen 2 UEFI firmware, since doing
so will cause an immediate system crash (most likely in the form of a
reboot).
This problem was masked before commit a0f6e75 ("[hyperv] Do not fail
if guest OS ID MSR is already set"), since prior to that commit we
would always fail if we found any non-zero guest OS identity. We now
accept a non-zero previous guest OS identity in order to allow for
situations such as chainloading from iPXE to another iPXE, and as a
prerequisite for commit b91cc98 ("[hyperv] Cope with Windows Server
2016 enlightenments").
A proper fix would be to reverse engineer the UEFI protocols exposed
within the Hyper-V Gen 2 firmware and use these to bind to the VMBus
device representing the network connection, (with the native Hyper-V
driver moved to become a BIOS-only feature).
As an interim solution, fail to initialise the native Hyper-V driver
if we detect the guest OS identity known to be used by the Gen 2 UEFI
firmware. This will cause the standard all-drivers build (ipxe.efi)
to fall back to using the SNP driver.
