I think it makes little sense to try to make Linux work as Hyper-V root
partition when !CONFIG_X86_64. If we still care about Hyper-V enablement
for !CONFIG_X86_64 we can probably introduce something like
CONFIG_HYPERV_ROOT and enable it automatically, e.g.

config HYPERV_ROOT
        def_bool HYPERV && X86_64

and use it instead.

So vp_index variable is needed here to make sure there are no gaps? (or
we could've just used 'i')?
