[PATCH 02/11] Drivers: hv: Move hv_vp_assist_page to common files
From: Naman Jain
Date: Mon Mar 16 2026 - 08:13:30 EST
Move the logic to initialize and export hv_vp_assist_page from x86
architecture code to Hyper-V common code to allow it to be used for
upcoming arm64 support in MSHV_VTL driver.
Note: This change also improves error handling - if VP assist page
allocation fails, hyperv_init() now returns early instead of
continuing with partial initialization.
