For Linux, running in Hyper-V VTL (Virtual Trust Level), kernel in VTL2
tries to access VTL0 low memory in probe_roms. This memory is not
described in the e820 map. Initialize probe_roms call to no-ops
during boot for VTL2 kernel to avoid this. The issue got identified
in OpenVMM which detects invalid accesses initiated from kernel running
in VTL2.
