Rather than duplicate this and other Hyper-V stuff, can you first add a struct
to hold the Hyper-V pages, along with a helper to populate them? I'd even throw
in the eVMCS stuff, it's trivial for the helper to have a flag saying "don't bother
allocating eVMCS". That will give us an easier path to allocating these pages
if and only if the test actually wants to enable Hyper-V stuff.
