I still think that using arch/x86/kvm/hyperv.[ch] for KVM-on-Hyper-V is
misleading. Currently, these are dedicated to emulating Hyper-V
interface to KVM guests and this is orthogonal to nesting KVM on
Hyper-V. As a solution, I'd suggest you either:
- Put the stuff in x86.c
- Create a dedicated set of files, e.g. 'kvmonhyperv.[ch]' (I also
thought about 'hyperv_host.[ch]' but then I realized it's equally
misleading as one can read this as 'KVM is acting as Hyper-V host').

Personally, I'd vote for the later. Besides eliminating confusion, the
benefit of having dedicated files is that we can avoid compiling them
completely when !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HYPERV) (#ifdefs in C are ugly).

Makes sense, creating new set of files looks good to me. The default 
hyperv.c
for hyperv emulation also seems misleading - probably we should rename it
to hyperv_host_emul.[ch] or similar. That way, probably I can use 
hyperv.[ch]
for kvm on hyperv code. If you feel, thats too big of a churn, I shall use
kvm_on_hyperv.[ch] (to avoid reading the file differently). What do you 
think?

Stray change?

It was kinda leftover, but I thought I'd keep it as it removes and 
unnecessary line.
