    drm/vmwgfx: Fix missing HYPERVISOR_GUEST dependency
    
    [ Upstream commit 8c4d6945fe5bd04ff847c3c788abd34ca354ecee ]
    
    VMWARE_HYPERCALL alternative will not work as intended without VMware guest code
    initialization.
    
      [ bp: note that this doesn't reproduce with newer gccs so it must be
        something gcc-9-specific. ]
