Can we make this say:
set_virt_disable_func(kvm_x86_ops->crash_hardware_disable);

So we can avoid going through 2 levels of function pointers?
I find that a little scary in code that might be running
at the edge of stack overflow.

Actually, with scheduling disabled we can overflow the stack as much as we like. It will reduce the quality of the dump, but everything ought to work.
