The function is almost the same on x86 (&_hvclock_page ->
&hvclock_page), would it maybe make sense to move this to arch neutral
clocksource/hyperv_timer.h?

I'm not sure likely() is justified here: it'll make ALL builds which
enable CONFIG_HYPERV_TIMER (e.g. distro kernels) to prefer
VCLOCK_HVCLOCK, even if the kernel is not running on Hyper-V.
