Agreed! As long as the filesystem is s390 specifc, we probably should put
it put it under arch/s390/hypfs. But in general one could imagine, that
also other hypervisor platforms want to have such a filesystem in the
future. In that case, we could make the filesystem more generic. E.g. we
could split it into the filesystem part and an architecture specific
backend which provides the hypervisor data. But you are right, until no
other platform supports it, we should keep it simple, leave it s390
specific and move it to arch/s390.
