[SRU][Xenial][PATCH 2/2] UBUNTU: SAUCE: hv: don't reset hv_context.tsc_page on crash

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets at redhat.com>

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1630924

It may happen that secondary CPUs are still alive and resetting
hv_context.tsc_page will cause a consequent crash in read_hv_clock_tsc()
as we don't check for it being not NULL there. It is safe as we're not
freeing this page anyways.
