Drivers: hv: vmbus: Add support for VMBus panic notifier handler Hyper-V allows a guest to notify the Hyper-V host that a panic condition occured. This notification can include up to five 64 bit values. These 64 bit values are written into crash MSRs. Once the data has been written into the crash MSRs, the host is then notified by writing into a Crash Control MSR. On the Hyper-V host, the panic notification data is captured in the Windows Event log as a 18590 event. Crash MSRs are defined in appendix H of the Hypervisor Top Level Functional Specification. At the time of this patch, v4.0 is the current functional spec.
