There has been cases reported where HYPERV_VTL_MODE is enabled by mistake, on a non Hyper-V platforms. This causes the hv_vtl_early_init function to be called in an non Hyper-V/VTL platforms which results the memory corruption. Remove the early_initcall for hv_vtl_early_init and call it at the end of hyperv_init to make sure it is never called in a non Hyper-V platform by mistake.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
