The UEFI specification mandates that the EFI watchdog timer should be disabled by the platform firmware as part of the ExitBootServices() call, but some platforms (e.g. Hyper-V) are observed to occasionally forget to do so, resulting in a reboot approximately five minutes after starting the operating system. Work around these firmware bugs by disabling the watchdog timer ourselves.
