Subject: [PATCH 5.4 103/191] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix crash handler reset of Hyper-V synic

From: Michael Kelley <mikelley@...rosoft.com>

[ Upstream commit 7a1323b5dfe44a9013a2cc56ef2973034a00bf88 ]

The crash handler calls hv_synic_cleanup() to shutdown the
Hyper-V synthetic interrupt controller.  But if the CPU
that calls hv_synic_cleanup() has a VMbus channel interrupt
assigned to it (which is likely the case in smaller VM sizes),
hv_synic_cleanup() returns an error and the synthetic
interrupt controller isn't shutdown.  While the lack of
being shutdown hasn't caused a known problem, it still
should be fixed for highest reliability.

So directly call hv_synic_disable_regs() instead of
hv_synic_cleanup(), which ensures that the synic is always
shutdown.
