Update drivers/hv/Kconfig so CONFIG_HYPERV can be selected on
ARM64, causing the Hyper-V specific code to be built.

Given the comment in a previous patch

+/*

+ * and a guest VM use Little Endian byte ordering.  This matches the default
+ * byte ordering of Linux running on ARM64, so no special handling is required.

shouldn't this depend on !CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN ?
or mark the data __le and have the appropriate accessor functions do
the swapping.
