Subject: [PATCH RFC] kconfig: add hvconfig for Linux on Hyper-V

From: Wei Liu <liuwe@...rosoft.com>

Add an config file snippet which enalbes additional options useful for
running the kernel in a Hyper-V guest.

The expected use case is a user provides an existing config file then
executes `make hvconfig`. It will merge those options with the
provided config file.

Based on similar concept for Xen and KVM.

RFC: I only tested this on x86.  Although the config options included in
hv_guest.config don't seem to be arch-specific, we should probably
move the ones not yet implemented on Arm to an x86 specific config
file.
