After commit 68bb7bfb7985 ("X86/Hyper-V: Enable IPI enlightenments"),
kexec fails with a kernel panic:
kexec_core: Starting new kernel
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000
Hardware name: Microsoft Corporation Virtual Machine/Virtual Machine, BIOS Hyper-V UEFI Release v3.0 03/02/2018
RIP: 0010:0xffffc9000001d000
Call Trace:
? __send_ipi_mask+0x1c6/0x2d0
? hv_send_ipi_mask_allbutself+0x6d/0xb0
? mp_save_irq+0x70/0x70

? native_machine_shutdown+0x22/0x40
? kernel_kexec+0x136/0x156
That happens if hypercall based IPIs are used because the hypercall page is
reset very early upon kexec reboot, but kexec sends IPIs to stop CPUs,
which invokes the hypercall and dereferences the unusable page.
To fix his, reset hv_hypercall_pg to NULL before the page is reset to avoid
any misuse, IPI sending will fall back to the non hypercall based
method. This only happens on kexec / kdump so just setting the pointer to
NULL is good enough.

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.
