This statement confuses me a bit.

It's worth to mention that both arch/s390/boot/uv.c (for the
decompressor) and arch/s390/kernel/uv.c (for the main kernel) are only
built when either CONFIG_PROTECTED_VIRTUALIZATION_GUEST or
CONFIG_KVM is enabled.
Both arch/s390/boot/Makefile and arch/s390/kernel/Makefile contain:
obj-$(findstring y, $(CONFIG_PROTECTED_VIRTUALIZATION_GUEST) $(CONFIG_PGSTE)) += uv.o

So this makes the variable available when
CONFIG_PROTECTED_VIRTUALIZATION_GUEST or CONFIG_KVM (expressed via
CONFIG_PGSTE) is enabled. Hence no need for extra conditions for variable
declaration.

hm, EXPORT_SYMBOL(uv_info) is not needed without CONFIG_KVM and this saves
1 symbol export, but I'd still made EXPORT_SYMBOL follow the declaration
immediately. Documentation/process/coding-style.rst mentions that only
for function declarations though.

yes, "always available" when the file is compiled at all, obviously.

in fact, there are some probably useless ifdefs in that file too, but
this patch should only address the bug

I was wondering the same regarding the export.

I don't have any strong opinions, so if anyone has a preference, speak
up and I can fix it.
