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.

An "enlightened" external bootloader (such as Windows Server 2016's
winload.exe) may take ownership of the Hyper-V connection before all
INT 13 operations have been completed. When this happens, all VMBus
devices are implicitly closed and we are left with a non-functional
network connection.
Detect when our Hyper-V connection has been lost (by checking the
SynIC message page MSR). Reclaim ownership of the Hyper-V connection
and reestablish any VMBus devices, without disrupting any existing
iPXE state (such as IPv4 settings attached to the network device).
Windows Server 2016 will not cleanly take ownership of an active
Hyper-V connection. Experimentation shows that we can quiesce by
resetting only the SynIC message page MSR; this results in a
successful SAN boot (on a Windows 2012 R2 physical host). Choose to
quiesce by resetting (almost) all MSRs, in the hope that this will be
more robust against corner cases such as a stray synthetic interrupt
occurring during the handover.
