Let me suggest a revised version of the commit message:
When kdump is not configured, a Hyper-V VM might still respond to
network traffic after a kernel panic when kernel parameter panic=0.
The panic CPU goes into an infinite loop with interrupts enabled,
and the VMbus driver interrupt handler still works because the
VMbus connection is unloaded only in the kdump path. The network
responses make the other end of the connection think the VM is
still functional even though it has panic'ed, which could affect any
failover actions that should be taken.
Fix this by unloading the VMbus connection during the panic process.
vmbus_initiate_unload() could then be called twice (e.g., by
hyperv_panic_event() and hv_crash_handler(), so reset the connection
state in vmbus_initiate_unload() to ensure the unload is done only
once.

I was trying to decide if there can actually be a race. The panic() and die()
functions both ensure that only a single CPU can execute in those paths at any
one time, though maybe panic() and die() could be running concurrently.
And vmbus_initiate_unload() can also be called in the hibernation path in
vmbus_bus_suspend(), so there could be a race. Doing the xchg() makes
sense.

Vitaly -- could you elaborate on what part is not arch-neutral? I don't see
a problem. ms_hyperv and the misc_features field exist for both the x86
and ARM64 code branches. It turns out the particular bit for
GUEST_CRASH_MSR_AVAILABLE is different on the two architectures, but
the compiler will do the right thing.
