x86/hyperv: Block root partition functionality in a Confidential VM
Hyper-V should never specify a VM that is a Confidential VM and also running in the root partition. Nonetheless, explicitly block such a combination to guard against a compromised Hyper-V maliciously trying to exploit root partition functionality in a Confidential VM to expose Confidential VM secrets. No known bug is being fixed, but the attack surface for Confidential VMs on Hyper-V is reduced.
