Subject: [PATCH 03/16] x86/reboot: Harden virtualization hooks for emergency reboot

Provide dedicated helpers to (un)register virt hooks used during an
emergency crash/reboot, and WARN if there is an attempt to overwrite
the registered callback, or an attempt to do an unpaired unregister.

Opportunsitically use rcu_assign_pointer() instead of RCU_INIT_POINTER(),
mainly so that the set/unset paths are more symmetrical, but also because
any performance gains from using RCU_INIT_POINTER() are meaningless for
this code.
