[ Upstream commit 32c97d980e2eef25465d453f2956a9ca68926a3c ]

Hyper-V cleanup code comes under panic path where preemption and irq
is already disabled. So calling of unregister_syscore_ops might schedule
out the thread even for the case where mutex lock is free.
hyperv_cleanup
unregister_syscore_ops
mutex_lock(&syscore_ops_lock)
might_sleep
Here might_sleep might schedule out this thread, where voluntary preemption
config is on and this thread will never comes back. And also this was added
earlier to maintain the symmetry which is not required as this can comes
during crash shutdown path only.

To prevent the same, removing unregister_syscore_ops function call.
