Actually not. The declaration is not needed on all architectures. On ARM64,
hyperv_init() and ms_hyperv_init_platform() are folded into one routine, and
it's not externally referenced. So the declaration isn't needed. The hypervisor
initialization approach is fairly different on ARM64.

Agreed. I'll spin a v2 with this cleaned up.
