> In the architecture independent version of hyperv-tlfs.h, commit c55a844f46f958b
> removed the "X64" in the symbol names so they would make sense for both x86 and
> ARM64.  That commit added aliases with the "X64" in the x86 version of hyperv-tlfs.h
> so that existing x86 code would continue to compile.
> 
> As a cleanup, update the x86 code to use the symbols without the "X64", then remove
> the aliases.  There's no functional change.
