Could you elaborate on why we would want this check to be Hyper-V
specific? Per my comments on Patch 3 of this series, I would think the
opposite. If possible, we want code like this to work on any hypervisor,
and not have Hyper-V specific behavior in code outside of the Hyper-V
modules. But I don't know this code well at all, so maybe there's an
aspect I'm missing.
