I did a kernel built with CONFIG_HYPERV=m today, and found out this line
should be (similar to x86):

	+obj-$(subst m,y,$(CONFIG_HYPERV))      += hyperv/

, otherwise, when CONFIG_HYPERV=m, files in arch/arm64/hyperv/ will be
compiled as obj-m, and symbols defined in those files cannot be
used by kernel builtin, e.g. hyperv_timer (since CONFIG_HYPERV_TIMER=y
in this case).

A compile/link error I hit today is:

| /home/boqun/linux-arm64/drivers/clocksource/hyperv_timer.c:98: undefined reference to `hv_set_vpreg'
| aarch64-linux-gnu-ld: /home/boqun/linux-arm64/drivers/clocksource/hyperv_timer.c:98: undefined reference to `hv_set_vpreg'

[...]

Besides, another problem I hit when compiled with CONFIG_HYPERV=m is:

| ERROR: "screen_info" [drivers/hv/hv_vmbus.ko] undefined!

, which can be fixed by the following change.

Boqun
