Subject: [PATCH v3 3/3] x86/virt: Fold __cpu_emergency_vmxoff() into its sole caller

Fold __cpu_emergency_vmxoff() into cpu_emergency_vmxoff(), its sole
remaining caller, to discourage crash/emergency code from handling VMX
but not SVM.  The behavior of VMX and SVM is so similar that it's highly
unlikely that there will be a scenario where VMX needs to be disabled,
but SVM can be left enabled.  In other words, during a crash and/or
emergency reboot, funnel all virtualization teardown sequences through
cpu_crash_disable_virtualization().

No functional change intended.
