Is it still possible to disable CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_ZDEV_KVM ? Looking at the
later patches (e.g. 20/21 where you call kvm_s390_pci_zpci_op() from
kvm-s390.c), it rather seems to me that it currently cannot be disabled
independently (as long as KVM is enabled).

So if you want to make this selectable by the user, I think you have to put
some more #ifdefs in the following patches.
But if this was not meant to be selectable by the user, I think it should
not get a help text and rather be selected by the KVM switch in
arch/s390/kvm/Kconfig instead of having a "default y".
